What is the distributive property?

• A mathematical rule that states the order of numbers in an addition and multiplication problem does not change the final answer

• Describes how to distribute multiplication over addition and subtraction

• Using the order of operations to find the value of a numerical expression

• Writing a numerical expression or algebraic expression as a product of factors
