Here is how to multiply using the distributive property:
First, the equation: 9 (x + 3) = 35
There must be parentheses for the distributive property, and a number outside those parentheses. The next step is to multiply 9 by x and 9 by 3 individually, and put an addition symbol in the middle.
The second equation: 9x + 27 = 35
Then, subtract 27: 9x = 18
Divide by 9 on both sides: x = 2.
That is how you multiply using the distributive property.

What is the distributive property of 12 and 56?
Well, honey, the distributive property states that when you multiply a number by a sum, you can multiply each addend by that number separately and then add the products. So, in this case, you would multiply 12 by 56 and get 672. But hey, who's counting?
What do you do when using the distributive property in a math problem?
Its quiet simple. All you have to know is that when you use the distributive property in math, it's most likely and equation. So you basically remove the parentheses. AKA(expanding the equation)
What is 8x15 in distributive property?
In the distributive property, we distribute the multiplication to each term inside the parentheses. So, 8x15 can be calculated as 8x(10+5) = 8x10 + 8x5. This simplifies to 80 + 40, which equals 120. So, 8x15 in distributive property is equal to 120.
How could you use the distributive property to show 84 divided by 7?

What is the distributive property of 18 plus 24?
The distributive property does not apply to addition by itself. So, unfortunately, the question does not make sense.
