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 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)
Distributive property with variables?
Say the Question is 3(2y+5) Multiply both terms in the brackets by 3 so (3x2y)+(3x5) = 6y+15
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.

What is 516 in distributive property?
The distributive property is applicable to two binary operators (such as addition and multiplication). There are no operators in the question and so the distributive property has no relevance to the question.

What is 364 x 26 in distributive property?
You don't need to use the distribution property, you can just multiply them. There is also nothing to distribute, so distribution simply cannot be done! The answer is 9464.
Explain how to use the distributive property to find 20x12?
The distributive property is not used for simplified multiplication. See http://www.algebrahelp.com/lessons/simplifying/distribution for information about how to use the distributive property to simplify other equations. 20 x 12 is already simplified, so the proper way to solve it is 12 x20 ----- 240 You could potentially factor and use the commutative property to find a simpler equation, ex. 20x12 -- break 20 into 10 and 2 10x2x12 -- multiply 2 by 12 10x24 -- multiply by 10 240

How do you turn a distrubitive property number to an algabraic expression?
This question is so poorly phrased as to be unanswerable! There is no such thing as a distrubitive property. There is a distributive property but that is a property that applies to two binary operations (for example, the distributive property of multiplication over addition), but NOT to numbers. Also, there is no such word as algabraic. In any case, since there is no such thing as a distrubitive property number or even a distributive property number, it is not possible to convert that non-existent thing into an algebraic expression.
How do use distributive property with division?
To be picky, the distributive property is about multiplication, but division is defined in terms of multiplication, so your question can be answered!Say you have (6xy+15y)/(3y). The distributive property will say this is equal to 6xy/3y + 15y/3y = 2x + 5.Notice that the "/3y" has been distributed onto each term inside the parentheses.
Examples of distributive property of multiplication?
The property that multiplication is distributive over addition means that a*(b+c) = (a*b) + (a*c) The usufulness of this property can be illustrated by the following example: 8*(102) = 8*(100+2) = (8*100) + (8*2) = 800 + 16 = 816. So if you split 102 into 100 and 2, and then use the distributive property, you do not need to work with a large number such as 102.
What is the property of 3(x plus 6)3(x) plus 3(6)?
The rubbish browser used for posting questions on this site has nearly trashed your question so I cannot be 100% sure, but I suggest it is the distributive property of multiplication over addition.
