We are given with the following:
5(2x10)
Which is a simple multiplication operation involving three terms. Associative property allows the multiplication of two numbers first before multiplying it with the third number. So:
5(2x10)
= 5(20)
= 100

Answer 2

Answer: 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given expression is,

$5 + 2 \times 10$

$=5 + 20$        ( By the multiplication property of equality)

$=25$               ( By addition property of equality )

Thus,

$5 + 2 \times 10=25$

Hence, The correct answer of the given expression is 25.
