The distributive property tells us how to solve equations of the form a*(b + c).

Normally when we see an equation like this, we first do the operations indicated inside the parenthesis and then solve, this is done following the official "order of operations" rule.

Using the distributive property we have to multiply first, distributing "a" with "b" and with "c".

Therefore, the way to remove the parentheses in the equation of your question using the distributive property is as follows


\begin{gathered} (x-7)\cdot3 \\ (3\cdot x)-(7\cdot3) \\ 3x-21 \end{gathered}
