12(2+ 1/2)
= 12x2 + 12x(1/2)
The distributive property refers to a property of TWO binary operations - usually of multiplication and addition - not just one operation. Consequently, 7*420 does not have a distributive property.
One example of a distributive property equation that equals 26 is (2(10 + 3) = 26). Here, you distribute the 2 to both terms inside the parentheses: (2 \times 10 + 2 \times 3), which simplifies to (20 + 6 = 26).
2k + 10 is an expression. The distributive property is a property of one binary operation (typically multiplication, or right-division) over another (addition or subtraction) for elements of a set (numbers); not a property of expressions.
To find (2 \times 2 \frac{1}{3}) using the distributive property, first convert (2 \frac{1}{3}) into an improper fraction: (2 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{7}{3}). Then, apply the distributive property: (2 \times \frac{7}{3} = \frac{2 \times 7}{3} = \frac{14}{3}). Finally, this can be expressed as (4 \frac{2}{3}) if you convert it back to a mixed number.
no because it is only one term and it really can not
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.

A number cannot have the distributive property. The distributive property is a property that one binary operator (for example, multiplication) has over another (addition) for a set of numbers or other mathematical objects (matrices).
The distributive property is defined in the context of two operations. You have only one (subtraction) in the question.
One example of a distributive property equation that equals 26 is (2(10 + 3) = 26). Here, you distribute the 2 to both terms inside the parentheses: (2 \times 10 + 2 \times 3), which simplifies to (20 + 6 = 26).
The DISTRIBUTIVE property is a property of multiplication over addition (or subtraction). In symbolic terms, it states that a * (b + c) = a * b + a * c
The distributive property is: a ( b + c) = ab + ac so you need a sum. Remember that 44 is 40 + 4, that is your sum. so... 9 x 44 = 9 (40 + 4) = (9 x 40) + (9 x 4)
2k + 10 is an expression. The distributive property is a property of one binary operation (typically multiplication, or right-division) over another (addition or subtraction) for elements of a set (numbers); not a property of expressions.
The distributive property connects two different operations - for example, addition and multiplication. In this case:a(b+c) = ab + ac Here is an example with numbers: 7(10+2) = 7x10 + 7x2 If you were thinking about other combinations of operations, I suggest you try out a few examples, whether both sides are equal or not.
To find (2 \times 2 \frac{1}{3}) using the distributive property, first convert (2 \frac{1}{3}) into an improper fraction: (2 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{7}{3}). Then, apply the distributive property: (2 \times \frac{7}{3} = \frac{2 \times 7}{3} = \frac{14}{3}). Finally, this can be expressed as (4 \frac{2}{3}) if you convert it back to a mixed number.
Distributive PropertyThe Distributive Property is easy to remember, if you recall that "multiplication distributes over addition". Formally, they write this property as "a(b + c) = ab + ac". In numbers, this means, that 2(3 + 4) = 2×3 + 2×4. Any time they refer in a problem to using the Distributive Property, they want you to take something through the parentheses (or factor something out); any time a computation depends on multiplying through a parentheses (or factoring something out), they want you to say that the computation used the Distributive Property.Why is the following true? 2(x + y) = 2x + 2ySince they distributed through the parentheses, this is true by the Distributive Property.Use the Distributive Property to rearrange: 4x - 8The Distributive Property either takes something through a parentheses or else factors something out. Since there aren't any parentheses to go into, you must need to factor out of. Then the answer is "By the Distributive Property, 4x - 8 = 4(x - 2)""But wait!" you say. "The Distributive Property says multiplication distributes over addition, not subtraction! What gives?" You make a good point. This is one of those times when it's best to be flexible. You can either view the contents of the parentheses as the subtraction of a positive number ("x - 2") or else as the addition of a negative number ("x + (-2)"). In the latter case, it's easy to see that the Distributive Property applies, because you're still adding; you're just adding a negative.The other two properties come in two versions each: one for addition and the other for multiplication. (Note that the Distributive Property refers to both addition and multiplication, too, but to both within just one rule.)
