The distributive property generally refers to the distributive property of multiplication. This property lets you multiply a number by a sum by multiplying that number by each addend and then adding those products.

Ex. 5 ( 2+3+6 ) --> 5(2) + 5(3) + 5(6)
10 + 15 + 30 = 55

In abstract algebra and formal logic, the distributive property of binary operations generalizes the distributive law from elementary algebra. In propositional logic, distribution refers to two valid rules of replacement. The rules allow one to reformulate conjunctions and disjunctions within logical proofs.
