Question

Which of the following is not an example of using the distributive property to multiply 12 times 22?

O 12(20 + 2)
o 22(10 + 2)
O 10(2.22)

Answer 1

the last answer 10(2.22)

Answer 2

The third one.

Explanation:

Both A and B are correct and should give you the same answer when you apply the distributive property.

12 * 20 + 2 * 12 = 240 + 24 = 264

22(10) + 22*2 = 220 + 44 = 264

The third one just give anything near 264.
