The "distributive property" involves multiplication and addition, and there must be at least three numbers involved.

(40+200)+(5+80)
45*60 can be written as (40+5)*60 and the distributive propoerty used to evaluate it. However, the associative property is much better 45*60 = 45*(2*30) = (45*2)*30 = 90*30 = 2700
The distributive property does not apply to addition by itself. So, unfortunately, the question does not make sense.

(2 x 9) + (3 x 9) = 5 x 9 = 45 The GCF is 9.

9(4+5)
45*60 can be written as (40+5)*60 and the distributive propoerty used to evaluate it. However, the associative property is much better 45*60 = 45*(2*30) = (45*2)*30 = 90*30 = 2700

9(2 + 3) = (9 x 2) + (9 x 3) = 9 x 5 = 45
