Imagine this. 2(3+5). So what you are doing is distributing the multiplication. 2(3+5) would turn into 2x3+2x5. After that you would have 6+10. Really all you are doing is separating what is in parentheses and multiplying each number by what is outside of them.
Its quiet simple. All you have to know is that when you use the distributive property in math, it's most likely and equation. So you basically remove the parentheses. AKA(expanding the equation)
The distributive property is when you take you number is share it with all the other numbers in the parenthesis. An example is x(2 + 3) = 2x + 3X.
Oh, the Distributive Property is a wonderful friend when it comes to sentences! Imagine you have a sentence like "I have 3 apples and 2 oranges." You can use the Distributive Property to rewrite it as "I have 3 apples and I have 2 oranges." It helps you break down and simplify sentences to make them easier to understand. Just like adding happy little trees to a painting, the Distributive Property adds clarity and beauty to your sentences.
You use it in math, especially in algebra 1. The F.O.I.L method is like the distributive property basically.
Sentence: I want to distribute these letters evenly.
The distributive property in math is (in variable definition) : a(b+c)=ab+ac For example you could use the distributive property to simplify this expression: 3(x+4) (3)(x) + (3)(4) 3x+12 is your answer! Hope this helps! -dancinggirl25
