4 x 875 = (4 x 800) + (4 x 70) + (4 x 5) = 3200 + 280 + 20 = 3500
A single number, without a binary operation, does not require the distributive property.
the distributive property is only used when simplifying expressions or solving an equation: to write an expression just translate the question into symbols and letters - you don't need to use the distributive property or any other property for that

You should state the property used, such as distributive property of multiplication over addition or addition property of equality, etc.
45*60 can be written as (40+5)*60 and the distributive propoerty used to evaluate it. However, the associative property is much better 45*60 = 45*(2*30) = (45*2)*30 = 90*30 = 2700
A single number, without a binary operation, does not require the distributive property.
Whether or not the distributive property can or should be used depends on what you wish to multiply 43.2 by. For example, if you wish to multiply 43.2 by 10, the distributive property is irrelevant!

The property used to rewrite 9x2 + 9x3 is the Distributive Property. Using the Distributive Property the expression can be rewritten as 9x2 + 9x2 + 9x2 or 27x2.
The distributive property is not used in evaluating 49 + 9.

7 x 86 does not HAVE a distributive property. The distributive property of multiplication can be used to calulate 7 x 86 as 7 x 86 = 7 x 80 + 7 x 6
The distributive property is not related to finding equivalent fractions. The distributive property is a rule that states a(b + c) is equal to ab + ac. It is used to simplify expressions and perform operations like multiplication or addition. To find an equivalent fraction, you would need to multiply or divide the numerator and denominator by the same nonzero number.
When applying distributive property to solve an equation, you multiply each term by term. For instance: a(b + c) = ab + ac
