Answer:

Michael's answer is not correct

5(153)≠ 5(53)

Step-by-step explanation:

Michael says that 5(153)=5(53)

Is his answer correct?

We solve for the left hand side

5(153) = 5 × 153

= 765

Solving for the right hand side

= 5(53) = 5 × 53

= 265

Therefore, from the above calculation,

5(153)≠ 5(53)

5(153) is not equal to 5(53)

Michael's answer is not correct
