Question
Verify the following:
18 × [9 + (-7)] = 18 × 9 + 18 × (-7)
18 × [9 + (-7)] = 18 × 9 + 18 × (-7)
✓
Answer
L.H.S.
18 × [9 + (-7)]
= 18 × 2
= 36
R.H.S.
18 × 9 + 18 × (-7)
= 162 + (-126)
= 36
So, L.H.S. = R.H.S. (Proved)
18 × [9 + (-7)]
= 18 × 2
= 36
R.H.S.
18 × 9 + 18 × (-7)
= 162 + (-126)
= 36
So, L.H.S. = R.H.S. (Proved)
