Definition: Distributive Property

The distributive property states that when you multiply a number by the sum of two other numbers, it is the same as multiplying the number by each of those two numbers separately and then add the results.

Explanation: The distributive property is often expressed using the following formula:

\$"a" times ("b" + "c") = "a" times "b" + "a" times "c"\$ or \$"a" times ("b" − "c") = "a" times "b" − "a" times "c"\$

Here:

a is a number(the factor that is being multiplied).
b and c are other numbers.
