Question

simplify using disrtibutive property {6/5 *(-1/12)}+{6/5*5/12}

Answer 1

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive Property says:

(a x b) + (a x c) = a x (b+c)

In the given question

a = 6/5   b= -1/12   c = 5/12

So, using distributive property, we can write

    (6/5 x -1/12) + (6/5 x 5/12)

=   6/5 x ( -1/12 + 5/12)

=   6/5 x ( 5-1 / 12)

=   6/5 x 4/12

=   6/5 x 1/3

=   6/15

=   2/5
