The distributive property tells us how to solve equations in the form of a(b + c). The distributive property is sometimes called the distributive law of multiplication and division.
Normally when we see an equation like this …
4(8+3)
distributive property format
4(8+3) -> 4(11) -> 44
we just evaluate what’s in the parentheses first, then solve it:
4(8+3)=4x8 + 4x3=44
These are the 2 methods
