Part 1:
Using the distributive property, we can rewrite the expression \( 89 \times 97 + 89 \times 3 \) as:

\[
89 \times (97 + 3)
\]

Part 2:
Now, we simplify the expression inside the parentheses:

\[
97 + 3 = 100
\]

Substituting back into the equation gives:

\[
89 \times (100)
\]

Now, simplifying further:

\[
89 \times 100 = 8900
\]

So the final answer is:

**8900**
