Answer:

27 + 60 = 3(9+20)

Explanation:

The distributive property is expressed as follows:

ab + ac = a(b+c)

Now, for the given, we have:

27 + 60

27 can be written as : 39

60 can be written as : 320

Rewriting the expression:

27 + 60 = (39) + (320)

Taking 3 as a common factor:

27 + 60 = (39) + (320) = 3(9+20) ............> The required expression fulfilling distributive law

Hope this helps :)

The correct answer is:

3(9+20).

Explanation:

The distributive property states that when you multiply the sum or difference of two terms by a number, you can multiply each term by that number and then find the sum or difference. Algebraically, it says

a(b+c) = ab + ac.

In order to write this using the distributive property, we must find something that will divide evenly into both 27 and 60. The only common factor they have is 3. 27/3 = 9 and 60/3 = 20; this gives us

3(9+20)
