The distributive property is a red herring for this question: you do not need it! The distributive property is applicable when you have two binary operations - multiplication and addition, for example. This question has nothing of the sort. Perhaps you meant some other property.
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
12 x 18 = (12 x 10) + (12 x 8)
35 x 3 = (30 x 3) + (5 x 3) = 90 + 15 = 105
7 x 70 + 7 x 8 = 490 = 56 = 546 7 x 78 = 546
4 x 18 = (4 x 10) + (4 x 8)
(12x8)*8

40 x 27 does not exhibit the distributive property.
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
8 x 12 = (8 x 10) + (8 x 2) = 80 + 16 = 96
7 x 86 does not HAVE a distributive property. The distributive property of multiplication can be used to calulate 7 x 86 as 7 x 86 = 7 x 80 + 7 x 6
The distributive property involves both a multiplication and an addition.
40 + 32 = (5 x 8) + (4 x 8) = 9 x 8 = 72
12 x 18 = (12 x 10) + (12 x 8)
2(x+6)=2x+12. This is an example of the distributive property.
The distributive property states that when you multiply a number by a sum, you can multiply each addend separately and then add the products. In this case, 4 times 5 is 20, and 4 times 1/8 is 1/2. Therefore, using the distributive property, 4 times 5 and 1/8 is equal to 20 + 1/2, which simplifies to 20 1/2 or 20.5.
