name the property
32X4=(30X4)+(2X4)
The property used in the given equation is the distributive property.
To explain how this property is used, let's break down the equation: 32 multiplied by 4 is equal to the sum of two multiplications. On the right side of the equation, we have (30 multiplied by 4) plus (2 multiplied by 4).
The distributive property states that when multiplying a number by a sum of other numbers, we can distribute the multiplication to each term inside the parentheses before performing the addition.
In this case, we can distribute the multiplication of 4 to both 30 and 2. So, (30 multiplied by 4) becomes 120, and (2 multiplied by 4) becomes 8. Then, we add these two products together: 120 plus 8 equals 128.
Therefore, we can rewrite the equation as 32 multiplied by 4 equals 128.
