Question 16710: use the distributive property to rewrite and simplify:
7*53
I am a parent trying to help my kid, but it has been a long time.
Thank you,

7*53
7(53)=371
Is all the distributive property means is to multiply 7 and 53.
So then if you have a problem such as;
7(x+53);
You would distribute the 7 to both the x and the 53.
Good luck, I hope this helps
