Answer:
240 x 15 = 3600
Step-by-step explanation:
Find : 240 x 15
The Distributive Property states that:
A(B +C) = AB + AC
(a) 240 x 5 = 1200
(b) 240 x ______ = 2400
or, ______ = 2400 / 240 = 10
⇒ 240 x 10 = 2400
c) 12,00 + _____ = _____
⇒ 1,200 + 2,400 = 3,600
Now, 240 x 15 = 240 (10 + 5)
= 240(10) + 240 (5) [Using the Distributive Property]
= 2400 + 1200 ( from (a), (b) )
= 3600 (using (c))
Hence, 240 x 15 = 3600
