What is distributed property in math?

Answer 1

To multiply a sum by a number,multiply each addend of the sum by the number outside the parentheses.For any numbers a, b, and c, a(b+c) = ab + ac and a(b-c) = ab - ac.Example: 2(5-3)= (2 times* 5) - (2 times* 3). Times*_multiply

Answer 2

When multiplying any value to an addition or subtraction expression in parentheses, the multiplier can be multiplied to each value in the expression and the parentheses removed. or example:

x*(y+z)=xy+xz

This also works with exponents over multiplication:

(xy)z=xzyz

Answer 3

the distributive property states that a(b+c) = ab+ac

you take whats inside the parenthesis and multiply it by the outside.

Answer 4

the distributive property is something like 4(3+8)

you would multiply 4 times 3+ 4 times 8
