Question

verify the distributive property of addition for rational numbers. a=3/5 b=2/7 c=3/7. explain it clearly. who is telling correctly I will mark you as brain list answer

Answer 1

Answer:

Distributive property is (a×b)+(a×c)=a(b+c)

now LHS= (a×b)+(a×c)

RHS=a×(b+c)

now first solve LHS:

put the values of a,b and c

(3/5×2/7)+(3/5×3/7)

=6/35+9/35

=15/35

=3/7

RHS=a(b+c)

putting values of a,b and c we get:

3/5(2/7+3/7)

=3/5×5/7

=15/35

=3/7

as LHS = RHS

hence verified
