Question

Which property of subtraction is satisfied by:

(v) $(15-12)\times 18=15\times 18-12\times 18$

Answer 1

Step: Checking property of addition

We know that, whole number obey distributive property of multiplication over subtraction.

i.e., $(a-b)\times c=(a\times c)-(b\times c)$

Hence,
$(15-12)\times 18=15\times 18-12\times 18$

Thus, distributive property of multiplication over subtraction is satisfied.
