\textsf{The \textbf{distributive property} states the following:}


.\qquad\bullet\sf{a(b+c)=ab+ac}


\textsf{So we take a number or a variable \textbf{a} and distribute it by multiplying it times b and c}


\textsf{Now we simplify.}


\textsf{5(12mu-7v)=5*12mu-5*7v=60mu-35v}


\Large\textsf{\textbf{Answer: 60mu-35v}}


\Large\overbrace{\underbrace{\boldsymbol{Reflection - RoSe}}}^\star_\star
