Question

-32multiply97 by distributive property

Answer 1

Answer:

If it is (-32) × 97

-32 × 97

= (-32) × (100 - 3)

= (-32) × 100 -[ (-32) × 3]        {Distributive property}

= (-3200) - (-96)

= (-3200) + 96

= (-3104)

If it is 32 × 97

32 × 97

= 32 × (100 - 3)

= 32 × 100 - (32 × 3)          {Distributive property}

= 3200 - 96

= 3104
