Question

16. Which expression shows how to use the Distributive Property to solve 6 x 349? A) (6 x 300) x (6 x 40) x (6 x 9) B) (6 + 300) + (6 + 40) + (6 + 9) C) (6 x 3) + (6 x 4) + (6 x 9) D) (6 x 300) + (6 x 40) + (6 x 9)

Answer 1

since 349 can be also written as 300+40+9

write the number like so in the multiplication

`6\cdot349=6\cdot(300+40+9)`

apply the distributive property

`(6\cdot300)+(6\cdot40)+(6\cdot9)`
