Real numbers are simply the combination of Whole numbers, Integers, Rational and Irrational numbers in the number system.

Suppose a, b, and c is three real numbers.

Distributive Property of Multiplication

Property: $-\text{a}  \text{(b}  -  \text{c}  \text{)}  =  (-\text{a} ) ·  \text{b} -  (-\text{a} ) ·  \text{c} $

Example: $-\text{3}  \text{(8}  -  \text{5}  \text{)}  =  (-\text{3} ) ·  8 -   (-\text{3} ) ·  \text{5}  =  -24+15=-  9$

We know that double negative is always positive. $-5  ·  (-  4)  =  +  20$
