The distributive property.
The most common distributive property is the distribution of multiplication over addition. It says that when a number is multiplied by the sum of two other numbers, the first number can be handed out or distributed to both of those two numbers and multiplied by each of them separately. Here's the distributive property in symbols:
a * (b + c) = a * b + a * c.
