How the PARCC reports it

PARCC was a multistate assessment system built around the Common Core-era PARCC mathematics model content frameworks rather than a separate proprietary standards set. Its math structure is organized by grade/course and aligned to CCSS-M content categories and model content frameworks.

Which property is $\color{red}{4\times}\color{blue}{(3+2)}\color{black}{\,=\,}\color{red}{4\times}\color{blue}{3+}\color{red}{4\times}\color{blue}{2}$ ?

$\color{red}{4\times}\color{blue}{(3+2)}\color{black}{\,=\,}\color{red}{4\times}\color{blue}{3+}\color{red}{4\times}\color{blue}{2}$ shows multiplying across a sum does not change the answer, so the expressions are equal in value. This is the distributive property.
