First find the difference of 72 and 60, which is 12 and that is the factor of both so 12 would go in the first box and then the next 2 will be 5 and 6 because 72/12 and 60/12 is 6 and 5. The final answer is:

12 x ( 5 + 6 )

Answer:

[tex]12\times (6+5)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a sum [tex]72+60[/tex]. We are asked to rewrite this sum using distributive property and greatest common factor.

First of all, we will find greatest common factor of 72 and 60.

Factors of 72: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72

Factors of 60: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, 60

We can see that the greatest common factor of 72 and 60 is 12.

We can rewrite our given sum as:

[tex]12\times 6+12\times 5[/tex]

Upon factoring out 12, we will get:

[tex]12\times (6+5)[/tex]

Therefore, our required expression is [tex]12\times (6+5)[/tex].
