Basidiomycota /bÉËsÉªdi.ÉµmaÉªËkoÊtÉ/ is one of two large phyla that, together with the Ascomycota, constitute the subkingdom Dikarya (often referred to as the higher fungi) within the kingdom Fungi.
Here are the rules for multiplying decimal numbers: 1  Multiply the numbers just as if they were whole numbers: 2  Line up the numbers on the right--do not align the decimal points. 3  Starting on the right, multiply each digit in the top number by each digit in the bottom number, just as with whole numbers.  Add the products.
In the left-hand side of the first equation, the 2 multiplies the sum of 1 and 3; on the right-hand side, it multiplies the 1 and the 3 individually, with the products added afterwards. Because these give the same final answer (8), it is said that multiplication by 2 distributes over addition of 1 and 3.
