Question

Felix used place value and the distributive property to rewrite the expression 9(278). His work is shown below. 9(278) = 9(200 + 70 + 8) What should Felix do to find the product? Select all that apply. Multiply 9(200) and multiply 70(8). Multiply 9(200), 9(70), and 9(8). Multiply 9(200) and then add (70 + 8). Distribute the 9 to each addend. Find the sum of (1,800 + 630 + 72).

Answer 1

its B D and E

Explanation:

Answer 2

Explanation:

Distributive property is as follows :

a(b+c) = ab + ac

Felix used place value and the distributive property to rewrite the expression 9(278).

Place value of 278 = 200 + 70 +8

He has done like : 9(278) = 9(200 + 70 + 8). Now, the steps are as follows :

9(278) = 9(200 + 70 + 8)

= 9(200)+9(70)+9(8)

= 1800 + 630 +72

= 2502

Hence, option (d) "Distribute the 9 to each addend. Find the sum of (1,800 + 630 + 72)" should be the correct answer.
