Which equation applies the distributive property?

−1.5⋅(6⋅1.25)=(−1.5⋅6)⋅1.25−1.5⋅(6⋅1.25)=(−1.5⋅6)⋅1.25

70+2.028=(70⋅2)+(70⋅0.02)+(70⋅0.008)70+2.028=(70⋅2)+(70⋅0.02)+(70⋅0.008)

(0.7⋅0.7)+(0.7⋅0.9)+(0.7⋅0.2)=0.7⋅(0.7+0.9+0.2)(0.7⋅0.7)+(0.7⋅0.9)+(0.7⋅0.2)=0.7⋅(0.7+0.9+0.2)

−2.5⋅0.6⋅5.8=−2.5⋅5.8⋅0.6

The distributive property dictates that:
a(b + c) = ab + ac
Thus,
(0.7 x 0.7) + (0.7 x 0.9) + (0.7 x 0.2)
= 0.7(0.7 + 0.9 + 0.2)
follows the distributive property. The third option is correct.
