Question

Simplify using the Distributive Property. 7*48 a (7×40)+8=288b.(7×50)-(7×2)=348c.(7×50)-2=348d.(7×40)+(7×8)+7=343

Answer 1

7 * 48

We can rewrite 48 as (40+8)

7 * (40+8)

But that doesn't seem to be one of our choices

We can rewrite 48 as (50-2)

7 * (50-2)

Now we can distribute

7*50 - 7*2

350 - 14

336
