You can put this solution on YOUR website!
weird id normally just add then multiply but for training purposes 6*10=60 6*9=54
60+54=114
.
this is a reduction problem not distributing anything
3 goes in to 9 three times
15+3=18
.
7*3x=21x 7*4=28
21x+28
.
7*15=105 7*-3=-21
105-21=84
.
this is a reduction problem
4 goes into 32 eight times
24-8=16
.
same as number 3
.
this is a reduction problem
3 goes into 3 one time
12-x
