Carlo works as a waiter. He works double shifts 6 days a week. The lunch shift is 3 hours and the dinner shift is 2 hours. Find the total number of hours he works per week using the numbers 6, 3, and 2. Do the calculation two different ways so that the results give further justification for the distributive property.

• A) \(6(3+2)=26\) \((6 \cdot 3)+(6 \cdot 2)=30\)
• B) \(6(3+2)=30\) \((6 \cdot 3)+(6 \cdot 2)=26\)
• C) \(6(3+2)=26\) \((6 \cdot 3)+(6 \cdot 2)=26\)
• D) \(6(3+2)=30\) \((6 \cdot 3)+(6 \cdot 2)=60\)
• E) \(6(3+2)=30\) \((6 \cdot 3)+(6 \cdot 2)=30\)
