Question

use < or > to compare 13 ×(54 +28) and 13 × 54 + 28 without calculating. Explain your reasoning

Answer 1

What do you mean by without calculating?

Answer 2

13•(54+28) > 13•54+28 because because the first one will equal 13 times 28 plus 13 times 58. in the other side we will only have 13 times 54 plus 28.
