Answer:

Distributive Property

Explanation:

Whenever we see an algebraic expression with parentheses become a new expression without the parentheses (assuming calculations were done correctly), that means that the distributive property has occurred.

The distributive property states that for an expression a(b + c), it is equal to ab + ac:

a(b + c) = ab + ac
