    Distribution is “effectively” multiplication. Nothing you say, nothing you point to, could possibly change that, because they will always get the same answer, and if getting the right answer is all that makes two things the same, then shut the fuck up.

    • Distribution is “effectively” multiplication

      No it isn’t, it’s Brackets. a(b+c)=(ab+ac) <== Brackets Now solve (ab+ac), or do you think that (8-5) is subtraction and not brackets? 😂 It’s actually the reverse process to Factorising, whereas Multiplication is the reverse operation to Division - not even remotely the same thing.

      othing you say, nothing you point to, could possibly change that,

      because they will always get the same answer

      No they don’t! 😂 That’s why it’s a Law

      1/a(b+c)=1/(ab+ac)

      1/ax(b+c)=(b+c)/a

      Oops! (b+c) went from being in the denominator to being in the numerator, leading to WRONG ANSWER 😂 Welcome to why we have The Distributive Law

      if getting the right answer is all that makes two things the same

      No it isn’t, but that’s the first thing which has to happen. See previous point where they aren’t even the same answer, therefore one of them is wrong

      shut the fuck up

      says person still refusing to look in Maths textbooks 🙄

        Syntax is notation is rules, as it suits your ability to be smug at people.

        How did I let you rope me into honestly trying to get through to you? I called all of this from a mile off, you did exactly what I said while insisting you weren’t, and I’m still left desperately hoping some combination of words will work. It doesn’t matter what I write here; you’re just going to quote every sentence, respond “tExTbOoK!”, and pick a sneering emoji.

        I never should’ve edited what the first reply said in full:

        Fuck off.

          Gaslighters can’t gaslight Maths teachers about Maths. You should know that by now

          I called all of this from a mile off

          That you were going to ignore Maths textbooks? I called that too 😂

          you did exactly what I said

          Nope. You never said I was going to prove you wrong

          while insisting you weren’t

          I’ve been doing the same thing I always do - proving you wrong with Maths textbooks 😂

          respond “tExTbOoK!”

          The question is, why do you refuse to look in any?

          You never should’ve commented at all gaslighter

          Fuck off.
