Question

Directions: Find the missing number in each question, then identify the property used.4. 10* ( 2 + 6 )= ( 10 * 2 ) + ( 10 * x )

Answer 1

The missing number: 6

The property used: Distributive Property of Multiplication

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the below;

`10\cdot(2+6)=(10\cdot2)+(10\cdot x)`

The below shows an example of the distributive property of multiplication;

`a(b+c)=(a\cdot b)+(a\cdot c)`

Applying the distributive property in the given equation, we can see that;

`x=6`

So the missing number is 6 and the equation can be written as;

`10*(2+6)=(10\cdot2)+(10\cdot6)`
