Answer:

The answer is

A.Distributive Property

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property of multiplication has to do with the multiplication of numbers by the sum of that number

say in our given example $2.05.

When we decide to multiply 3 property with $2 and $0.5 which when added together will still give  $2.05, we are using distributive property of multiplication.

Hence according to distributive property 3*$2.05 is the same as

3*$2 + 3*$0.5
