Use the Distributive Property to Solve

<p>Distributive property: Multiplying a sum by a number is the same as multiplying each addend in the sum by the same number and then adding the products. *The word “distribute” means “to give out”</p><p>Factoring: Using the Distributive Property in reverse, by dividing the addends by a common factor, to write rewrite a sum of two terms as a product</p><p>Associative property: Means that the grouping does not make any difference. Commutative property does not work for subtraction or division. Example: (a +b) + c= a + (b +c) Example: (ab)c= a (bc)</p><p>Commutative property: Means that the order does not make any difference. Commutative property does not work for subtraction or division. Example: a + b= b + a a ● b= b ●a Topic: Distributive Property </p><p>Use the Distributive Property to solve: </p><p>Link: https://www.khanacademy.org/math/pre-algebra/order-of- operations/ditributive_property/a/distributive-property-explained</p><p>Factor out the GCF and re-write each expression using parenthesis.
