Brief Explanations

The distributive property, formally the distributive property of multiplication over addition/subtraction, corely uses multiplication to distribute a factor across terms in a sum or difference. For example, $a(b+c)=ab+ac$ relies on multiplication to apply $a$ to both $b$ and $c$. While addition/subtraction are part of the structure, multiplication is the defining operation of the property. Division does not define the distributive property.
