If we add and then multiply or we multiply and then add,
We get the same answer
This is called Distributivity
a × (b + c) = a × b + a × c
Example
For 2, 3 & 4
Hence
2 × (3 + 4 ) = 2 × 3 + 2 × 4
Distributivity of Multiplication over Addition If we add and then multiply or we multiply and then add, We get the same answer This is called Distributivity a × (b + c) = a × b + a × c Example For 2, 3 & 4 Hence 2 × (3 + 4) = 2 × 3 + 2 × 4
