Question

Explain how you can find 3x584 using expanded form

Answer 1

you do 3X500, 3X80, 3X4, and then add all the answers together

Answer 2

1752.

Explanation:

We are asked to find the product of given expression using expanded form.

To write the given product in expanded form, we will write 584 as sum of hundreds, tens and ones as:

`3* 584=3* (500+80+4)`

Use distributive property
`a(b+c)=ab+ac`:

`3* (500+80+4)=3* 500+3* 80+3* 4`

`3* (500+80+4)=1500+240+12`

`3* (500+80+4)=1752`

Therefore, our required answer would be 1752.
