Question

NEED HELP SOON!!!! for any numbers a, b, and c, a(b + c)=ab+ac

Answer 1

The property displayed here is the distributive property.

If you have a variable or unknown number inside or outside of parentheses, you can distribute it to each term and add the terms together, and it will remain true.

Example:

4(x + 5)

After distributing, it'll look like this:

4x + 20
