The distributive property of multiplication over addition is used when we multiply a number by a sum.
For example:
Lets suppose we want to multiply 7 by the sum of (15+3). So, according to this property, we can add the numbers and then multiply by 7.
It can be written like this :
[tex]7(15+3)[/tex]
[tex]7(18)[/tex]
= 126
