Question

25*[(-32)+(-16)]=25*(-32)+25*(-16)

Answer 1

The property used in the question is distributive property. So we have to see if it applies here.

25× [(-32) + (-16)] = 25 × (-32) + 25 × (-16)

25 × (-48) = (-800) + (-400)

(-1200) = (-1200)

Additional Information

Distributive Property ⇒ $a(b+c)=a*b+a*c$

Types of Distributive Property -

• Distributive Property Over Addition ⇒ $a(b+c) = (a*b)+(a*c)$

• Distributive Property Over Subtraction ⇒ $a(b-c)=(a*b)-(a*c)$
