Larry claims that (14 + 12) × (8 + 12) and (14 × 12) + (8 × 12) are equivalent because they have the same digits and the same operations. Is Larry correct?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Larry is wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying big numbers will give significantly bigger results then multiplying smaller numbers then adding them. 14 + 12 = 26 & 8 + 12 = 20. 14 x 12 = 68 & 8 x 12 = 96. 96 + 168 is alot less then 26 * 20 so that is why larry is wrong
