Choose the number sentence that shows the distributive property of multiplication over addition. a. 6 × (3 + 4) = (6 × 3) + (6 × 4) b. 6 × (3 + 4) = (6 + 3) × (6 + 4) c. 6 × (3 + 4) = (6 × 3) + 4

The correct answer is A

As the name suggests, we distribute the multiplier over the terms in the parenthesis that are adding.

The distributive property of multiplication over addition simply says that, if a number is multiplying the whole parenthesis with the terms inside the parenthesis adding, multiply each of the terms by the number and add them.

Comparing this property to the above options, it is only in option A that the distributive of multiplication over addition has been used.

Note however that, addition is not distributive over multiplication.
