distributive property for (11-3)=
The distributive property states that when you have a problem, say 3(42-36) then you distribute the multiply by 3 to the 42 and -36 to get 126-108 which can be easier to solve some times. Also when you simplify problems with variables, you can substitute 5n+15 to 5(n+3).-------a(b+c) = ab+ac
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
