By the distributive law 49 x 17 + 49 x 3=

Sagot :

Answer:

49(17 + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The Distributive Law says [tex]a(b+c)=ab+ac[/tex].  But it can be used in the other direction,  [tex]ab+ac=a(b+c)[/tex].  That way, you look at ab and ac to find the common factor a.  What's playing the role of  a  in the expression 49 x 17 + 49 x 3?  It's 49, the factor that shows up twice.  That's the factor that can be taken outside the parentheses.

49 x 17 + 49 x 3 = 49(17 + 3)
