Describe the distributive property? Hw is it diffrent from other properties? Can you give a example?

The distributive property also can be used to simplify algebraic equations by eliminating the parenthetical portion of the equation. Take for instance the equation a(b + c), which also can be written as (ab) + (ac) because the distributive property dictates that a, which is outside the parenthetical, must be multiplied by both b and c.

Step-by-step explanation:

The word "associative" comes from "associate" or "group"; the Associative Property is the rule that refers to grouping. For addition, the rule is "a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c"; in numbers, this means 2 + (3 + 4) = (2 + 3) + 4. For multiplication, the rule is "a(bc) = (ab)c"; in numbers, this means 2(3×4) = (2×3)4. Any time they refer to the Associative Property, they want you to regroup things; any time a computation depends on things being regrouped, they want you to say that the computation uses the Associative Property.

The word "commutative" comes from "commute" or "move around", so the Commutative Property is the one that refers to moving stuff around. For addition, the rule is "a + b = b + a"; in numbers, this means 2 + 3 = 3 + 2. For multiplication, the rule is "ab = ba"; in numbers, this means 2×3 = 3×2. Any time they refer to the Commutative Property, they want you to move stuff around; any time a computation depends on moving stuff around, they want you to say that the computation uses the Commutative Property.

What is Distributive Property?

To “distribute” means to divide something or give a share or part of something.

According to the distributive property, multiplying the sum of two or more addends by a number will give the same result as multiplying each addend individually by the number and then adding the products together.

5 + 7 + 3 ) x 4

= 5 x 4 + 7 x 4 + 3 x 4

= 60
