The property you're describing is known as the **distributive property**. It states that:
**a(b + c) = ab + ac** for addition, and
**a(b - c) = ab - ac** for subtraction.
In this context, the "blank" refers to the factor "a", and the "given quantity" refers to the expression inside the parentheses, which can be a sum or a difference. The distributive property allows you to multiply the factor by each term inside the parentheses, resulting in the sum or difference of the products.
