Distributive property

We have that the distributive property states that the multiplication is done for all the terms inside the parenthesis. Then we have:

Since

3 · 28 = 84

and

3 · □ = 93

Since 3 · 31 = 93, then

□ = 31

Answer: 31

Consider the equation showing the distributive property 84+93=3(28+□)-example-1
