what is the distributive property, and how does it work?
It doesn't have to be used with a variable - it will be true anyway
6(3+5)=6*(3+5)=6*3+6*5=18+30=48
It si when you take a number outside of parenthesis and ultipl it by a number in parenthesis
Ex: 2(4+8) is two times 4 plus two times eight, and is usualyy used with a variable!
