Question

Althea buys a carton of milk each day at school. The milk costs $0.90. How much does she spend on milk during a typical 5-day week? Justify your answer by using the distributive property?

Answer 1

$0.90×5 days=$4.50
Instead using distributive property
$0.90(3+2)=0.90×3 + 0.90×2
=2.7+1.8
=$4.50
