Use the distributive property to express 24 40

The Distributive property:
a ( b + c ) = a b + b c
In this case:
24 + 40 = 8 * ( 3 + 5 )
Thank you.

You can factor the two numbers using one common factor. Let us use common factor 2.

Given that 24/2 = 12 and 40/2 = 20, you can write: 24 + 40 = 2 (12 + 20).

The distributive property applied to 2 (12 + 20) is:

2* 12 + 2*20 = 24 + 40.

Remember that the rule for the distributive property is: (m+n)(x+y) = mx + my + nx + ny
