Question

Which expression is equivalent to 27 + 45?

8(3 + 6)
8(19 + 37)
9(3 + 5)
9(18 + 36)

Answer 1

this is distributive property.

So if you multiply the outside times the inside, it will be 9*3 = 27 and 9*5= 45
Its 9(3+5)

Answer 2

27+45= 72 so it would be 8(3+6) because 3+6=9 and 8*9=72

Answer 3

8(3 + 6) this is the one that i think

Answer 4

@sethRB26DETT but think about it, it's not asking for the answer. It's asking for an equation that is equivalent

Answer 5

IT'S A TRAP!!!!!!!!!

Answer 6

both are equivalent @ste.cano

Answer 7

no ste.cano is correct. I misread. it wants an expression that equates to 27+45 not the answer. so 9(3+5) is correct because 9(3+5) = 27+45

Answer 8

am i right

Answer 9

8(3+6) = 24+ 48 which is incorrect.

Answer 10

exactly but its asking for you to get the same answer as the equation so its basically asking you to simplify

Answer 11

??

Answer 12

will medal

Answer 13

@Rhystic please explain how you got 8(3+6)=24+48

Answer 14

they both give you the same equation but the question is asking you to simplify in order to get the same equation
And they multiplied 8*3 and 8*6 which is correct

Answer 15

answer*

Answer 16

??? so what you just said is right right

Answer 17

matching the expression would be more correct which 9(3+5)=27+45=72 becaues 8(3+6) = 24+ 48 which is not the same as 27+45 although both equal 72.

Answer 18

All you have to do in problems like this is multiply the outside number * the inside numbers inside the parenthesis

Answer 19

okay so you distribute the 8 into the parentheses
i thought it was solving the expression

Answer 20

9(3+5) = 9*3 + 9*5 = 27+45 ; 8(3+6) = 8*3+8*6 = 24 + 48

Answer 21

@sethRB26DETT All it was asking for was to get the same equation not the same answer
