Distributive Property

Front

What is the Distributive Property?

Back

The Distributive Property states that a(b + c) = ab + ac. It allows you to multiply a number by a sum by distributing the multiplication to each addend.

How can you express 5 x (4 + 3) using the Distributive Property?

Back

5 x (4 + 3) = (5 x 4) + (5 x 3) = 20 + 15.

Front

What is the result of using the Distributive Property on 6 x (2 + 5)?

Back

6 x (2 + 5) = (6 x 2) + (6 x 5) = 12 + 30 = 42.

Front

If you have 3 x (7 + 2), what does it equal using the Distributive Property?

Back
