Use the Distributive Property to simplify the expression.

\huge\boxed{Hello\:there! :)}

The Distributive Property states that

a(b+c)=ab+ac

We multiply a by b and c.

Let's solve our problem:

25(x-y)

25x-25y

Since we can't add different variables together, 25x-25y is our final answer.

25x-25y that is the answer. You multiply the outside variable with the first variable inside the parenthesis. Next, you do the same thing to the other side and that is your answer. (unless you have to do more work)
