You wouldn't. if it was something like 15(X-95) then you could use the distrubutive property but that is just a multiplication problem

To apply the distributive property to an algebraic expression, you multiply each term inside the parentheses by the number or variable outside the parentheses. For example, to simplify 2(x + 3), you would multiply 2 by both x and 3, resulting in 2x + 6.
The distributive property is not related to finding equivalent fractions. The distributive property is a rule that states a(b + c) is equal to ab + ac. It is used to simplify expressions and perform operations like multiplication or addition. To find an equivalent fraction, you would need to multiply or divide the numerator and denominator by the same nonzero number.
The distributive property of multiplication deals with multiplying across a set of parenthesis. An example of this property would be, x(y+z) = xy + xz.
Oh, dude, finding the distributive property is like a walk in the park... if you're into math and stuff. So, you basically multiply 127 by 30 and 127 by 2 separately, then add those results together. It's like breaking down a big number into smaller, more manageable pieces. Easy peasy, right?
