With the Distributive Property of Multiplication, a sum is multiplied
by a number 4 X (3 + 5)
a.) You can multiply each addend by the number, then add the products:
(4 X 3) + (4 X 5) = 12 + 20 = 32 or
b.) Add then multiply 4 X (3 + 5) = 4 X (8) = 32
Complete the following:
(5 X 6) + (5 X 2) = 30 +
( X 4 ) + (3 X 5) = 12 + 15
(9 X 4) + ( X 5) =
+ 40
( X 2) + (8 X 8) = 16 +
(6 X 3) + ( X 7) =
+ 56
( X 2) + (7 X 4) = 14 + 28
(9 X ) + (9 X 7) = 81 + 63
( X 8) + (4 X 3) = 32 +
(6 X 2) + (6 X ) = 12 + 36
3 X (8 + 2) = (3 X 8) + (3 X )
8 X (8 + 5) = ( X 8) + (8 X 5)
X (2 + 4) = (5 X 2) + (5 X 4)
X (4 + 6) = (7 X 4) + (7 X 6)
3 X (9 + 2) = (3 X ) + (3 X 2)
5 X (3 + 7) = ( 5 X ) + (5 X 7)
9 X (6 + 5) = ( X 6) + (9 X 5)
1 X (7 + 8) = (1 X ) + (1 X )
2 X (4 + 8) = ( X 4) + (2 X 8)
