1. Distributive Property; The property that states that multiplying a sum by a number is the same as multiplying each addend by the number and then adding the products.
2. Partial Products; A method of multiplying in which the ones, tens, hundreds, and so on are multiplied separately and then the products are added together.
Multiplying by tens, hundreds, thousands
7 x 4 = 28
7 x 40 = 280
