70 + 35 = 105
Explain what the Distributive Property means in your own words.
Multiplying a number by a group of numbers added together is the same as multiplying each number separately and adding the results.
Use the Distributive Property to solve:
6 × (60 + 2)
360 + 12 = 372
True or False:
6(10 + 5) = 6 × 10 + 6 × 5
True
A gym floor is 50 ft × 84 ft. Split 84 into 80 and 4. Use the distributive property to solve.
50 × (80 + 4) = 4000 + 200 = 4200 square feet
8 × (2 + ___) = 16 + 56
7
You have a rectangle that is 6 units tall and 244 units wide. Break 244 into two parts and use the distributive property.
6 × (200 + 44) = 1200 + 264 = 1464
True or False:
7(20 + 8) = 7 + 20 + 8
False
