Questions and Answers

Q 1 - Evaluate given expression using distributive property 7 × (4 + 6)

A - 34

B - 46

C - 70

D - 72

Answer : C

Explanation

Step 1:

Distributive property of multiplication states that for any three numbers 'a', 'b' and 'c'
a × (b + c) = (a × b) + (a × c)

Step 2:

Using distributive property of multiplication

7 × (4 + 6) = 7 × 4 + 7 × 6 = 28 + 42 = 70

Q 2 - Evaluate given expression using distributive property 6 × (4 + 3)

A - 22

B - 27

C - 30

D - 42

Answer : D

Explanation

Step 1:

Distributive property of multiplication states that for any three numbers 'a', 'b' and 'c'
a × (b + c) = (a × b) + (a × c)

Step 2:

Using distributive property of multiplication

6 × (4 + 3) = 6 × 4 + 6 × 3 = 24 + 18 = 42

Q 3 - Evaluate given expression using distributive property 9 × (5 + 2)

A - 47

B - 63

C - 65

D - 90

Answer : B

Explanation

Step 1:

Distributive property of multiplication states that for any three numbers 'a', 'b' and 'c' a × (b + c) = (a × b) + (a × c)

Step 2:

Using distributive property of multiplication

9 × (5 + 2) = 9 × 5 + 9 × 2 = 45 + 18 = 63

Q 4 - Evaluate given expression using distributive property 11 × (7 − 6)

A - 11

B - 12

C - 71

D - 83

Answer : A

Explanation

Step 1:

Distributive property of multiplication states that for any three numbers 'a', 'b' and 'c'
a × (b – c) = (a × b) – (a × c)

Step 2:

Using distributive property of multiplication

11 × (7 − 6) = 11 × 7 − 11 × 6 = 77 – 66 = 11

Q 5 - Evaluate given expression using distributive property 8 × (3 + 4)

A - 28

B - 56

C - 35

D - 15

Answer : B

Explanation

Step 1:

Distributive property of multiplication states that for any three numbers 'a', 'b' and 'c' a × (b + c) = (a × b) + (a × c)

Step 2:

Using distributive property of multiplication

8 × (3 + 4) = 8 × 3 + 8 × 4 = 24 + 32 = 56

Q 6 - Evaluate given expression using distributive property 8 × (7 − 3)

A - 12

B - 18

C - 32

D - 53

Answer : C

Explanation

Step 1:

Distributive property of multiplication states that for any three numbers 'a', 'b' and 'c' a × (b – c) = (a × b) – (a × c)

Step 2:

Using distributive property of multiplication

8 × (7 − 3) = 8 × 7 − 8 × 3 = 56 – 24 = 32

Q 7 - Evaluate given expression using distributive property 7 × (3 + 11)

A - 21

B - 32

C - 80

D - 98

Answer : D

Explanation

Step 1:

Distributive property of multiplication states that for any three numbers 'a', 'b' and 'c' a × (b + c) = (a × b) + (a × c)

Step 2:

Using distributive property of multiplication

7 × (3 + 11) = 7 × 3 + 7 × 11 = 21 + 77 = 98
