Question

Verify 37×[6+(-3)] = 37×6+37×-3

Answer 1

37×(6-3)=37×6+37×-3
37×3=222-111
111=111
hence, verified

Answer 2

Concept

• When you multiply two integers with the same sign, the result is always positive.

• When two opposite-sign numbers are multiplied, the result is always negative.

Given

The equation 37×[6+(-3)] = 37×6+37×-3.

Find

We have to Verify this equation.

Solution

To verify first simplify the left-hand side.

37×[6+(-3)] = 37×(6-3)

                  = 37×3

                  = 111

Now simplify the right-hand side.

37×6+37×-3= 222-111

                   = 111

Therefore, both sides are equal

Hence equation is verified.
