Q. Which property of multiplication is shown?q⋅s+r⋅s=(q+r)⋅sChoices:(A)zero(B)associative(C)distributive(D)commutative
Identify Property: Identify which property of multiplication says "You can add two numbers and then multiply by a third number, or you can multiply each number by the third number and then add the results."Distributive property of multiplication over addition: a(b+c)=ab+ac.This statement shows that multiplication is distributed over addition.
Apply Distributive Property: Select the answer choice that the statement q⋅s+r⋅s=(q+r)⋅s shows.Distributive property of multiplication over addition: a(b+c)=ab+ac.Therefore, the statement q⋅s+r⋅s=(q+r)⋅s shows the distributive property of multiplication over addition.
