how do i express the distrubutive property og -4(8-8)

Question

distributive propery of -4(8-8)

Answer 1

-4(8-8)=-4×8-(-4)(-8)=-32+32=0.

You can see this by working out 8-8 first, 8-8=0 then multiplying by -4=0.

This shows that distributing the -4 to the contents of the parentheses gives the same answer zero.
