Correct Question
Find the product using suitable property 4987 X (- 4 )+ (- 4987) X 96
Answer
Hence the product using the suitable property is -498700
Given
4987 X (- 4 )+ (- 4987) X 96
To Find
Product using suitable property
Solution
-4987 X 96 = -1 X 4987 X 96
From the associative property, we know that
abc = bac
Therefore,
-1X 4987 X 96 = 4987 x (-1) x 96
= 4987 x (-96)
From Distributive property, we know that,
a(b + c) = ab + ac
Here a = 4987
b = -4
c = 96
Hence we get
ab + ac = 4987 X (-4) + 4987 X (-96)
Therefore, we will take 4987 commons and get
4987(-4 - 96)
= 4987 X (-100)
Since there is one plus and one minus, the product will be negative.
Hence the answer is
-498700
Hence the product using the suitable property is -498700
