when you do distributive property you share whatever is outside the parentheses with what is inside. I'll give you an example:
4(7-6)
step1:multiply 4 by 7-4 times 6 (you are sharing the number outside parenthese,4, with the number inside the parentheses,7 and 6. remember to bring down the symbol which is minus.
step2: you should get 4*7-4*6. this is you answer. you can check this by...
writing the oringinal problem and then write the answer. do order of operations and you should get the same answer on both sides.
4(7-6)=4*7-4*6
4 (1) =28- 24
4= 4
THAT IS CORRECT!
you have just completed the distributive property.
The distributive property of multiplication over addition states that a*(b + c) = a*b + a*c
The multiplication properties are: Commutative property. Associative property. Distributive property. Identity property. And the Zero property of Multiplication.
The distributive property involves both a multiplication and an addition.
Commutative: a × b = b × a Associative: (a × b) × c = a × (b × c) Distributive: a × (b + c) = a × b + a × c
There is no "distributive property" involved in this case. A distributive property always involves two operations, usually multiplication and addition. It states that a(b+c) = ab + ac.There is no "distributive property" involved in this case. A distributive property always involves two operations, usually multiplication and addition.

Numbers do not have a distributive property. The distributive property is an attribute of one arithmetical operation over another. The main example is the distributive property of multiplication over addition.
Addition, by itself, does not have a distributive property. Multiplication has a distributive property over addition, according to which: a*(b + c) = a*b + a*c
The distributive property of multiplication OVER addition (or subtraction) states that a*(b + c) = a*b + a*c Thus, multiplication can be "distributed" over the numbers that are inside the brackets.
The distributive property is applicable to two binary operators (such as addition and multiplication). There are no operators in the question and so the distributive property has no relevance to the question.
Addition, by itself, does not have a distributive property. Multiplication has a distributive property over addition, according to which: a*(b + c) = a*b + a*c
No. The distributive property applies to two operations (usually multiplication and addition), NOT to numbers.
588 is a single number. A number does not have a distributive property. The distributive property is exhibited by two binary operations (such as multiplication and addition) defined over a field.
