The Distributive Property is a fundamental property in mathematics that expresses how multiplication distributes over addition or subtraction. The property states that for any numbers a, b, and c:

\[a \times (b + c) = a \times b + a \times c\]

Similarly, for subtracton:

\[a \times (b - c) = a \times b - a \times c\]

If you have a specific equation in mind, please provide it, and I can demonstrate how to apply the Distributive Property.
