You are shopping for school clothes. You want to buy 4 pairs of pants that cost $24.10 each. Use the distributive property to mentally calculate the total cost of the pants. A. $48.20 B. $96.40 C. $24.10 D. $72.30

Sazzie:

B.

scoobydoobydoo:

ok

Razor:

The answer would be B. $96.40 because you would multiply 4 x $24.10 = $96.40. It is because 4 represents how many you're buying and then if you multiply 4 x $24.10 it is the same as doing $24.10 + $24.10 + $24.10 + $24.10.
