449 x 5 = 2245??

You cannot use the distributive property in this equation. It can only be used when there is paranthesis
apologiabiology
you can use the distributive property

goes like this
a(b+c)=ab+ac

so what you do it split a number up to make it easier

so in this case you can have 3
a(b+c+d)=ab+ac+ad

so
we can spit 449 into 400+40+9

so
5(400+40+9)=
(5)(400)+(5)(40)+(5)(9)=
2000+200+45=
2245
tada
