Question

Find the products with suitable properties: 23*(-36)*10 with methods and which property it is ??

Answer 1

23*(-36)*10     Hmmm...

-36 can be written as -12*3 (NOT -12*-3 as it would equal to 36 not -36)

23*(-12)*3*10

(23*-12)(3*10)                                                                 (distributive property)

-276*30

-8280

So we get the answer as -8280 by using distributive property.
