Distribute & Conquer

This worksheet provides a wide variety of practice problems requiring students to simplify expressions using the Distributive Property. The set includes positive and negative coefficients, fractional multipliers, mixed operations, and variable expressions, giving students exposure to many scenarios. Items are arranged in a clean vertical format to encourage independent computation. By working through increasingly diverse examples, students deepen their understanding of how distribution works across different types of numbers. This worksheet is ideal for sharpening calculation accuracy and reinforcing conceptual understanding. It can be used as seatwork, enrichment, or skill reinforcement.
