Distributive Law | more ... |
The Distributive Law means that you get the same answer when you multiply a number by a group of numbers added together as when you do each multiplication separately Example: 3 × (2 + 4) = 3×2 + 3×4 So the "3" can be "distributed" across the "2+4" into 3 times 2 and 3 times 4. | |
