Explain what distributive property is in the most simple way, that even a toddler could understand. I'd give brainliest to the simplest answer

The distributive property is when you take the value that the equation is being multiplied by and multiply each value in the equation by it.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ex.

3 ( 3 + 9 ) = ?

You can use the distributive property here:

3 ( 3 + 9 ) = ?

3 ( 3 + 9 ) = ?

( 3 x 3 ) + ( 3 x 9 )

9 + 27

36

3 ( 3 + 9 ) = 36

second option

step-by-step explanation:

the measures of a triangle equal 180. use that to find x.

2x+3x+4x=180

9x=180

9x/9=180/9

x=20

now you know x, you know angle a is 40°, angle b is 60°, angle c is 80°.

because angle a is 40°, the first option doesn't work.

because angle b is 60°, the second option does work.

when you add angle a and b, you get 100°. complementary means it equals 90°, so the third option doesn't work.

when you add angle a and c, you get 120°, which is not 100.
