For example... 2*(6+2)
(2*6) + (2*2) = 16
You distribute whatever number you are multiplying with even variables
4x*(3x+5) Would be 12x^2+20x
That is distribute property

The Distributive Property is an algebra property which is used to multiply a single term and two or more terms inside a set of parentheses. Take a look at the problem below. 2(3 + 6)
