What is multiplication?

Back

Multiplication is a mathematical operation that represents the repeated addition of a number. For example, 3 multiplied by 4 (3 x 4) is the same as adding 3 four times (3 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 12).

What is the product of two numbers?

Back

The product is the result of multiplying two or more numbers together. For example, the product of 5 and 6 is 30.

Front

What is addition?

Back

Addition is a mathematical operation that combines two or more numbers to get a total. For example, 2 + 3 = 5.

Front

What is subtraction?

Back

Subtraction is a mathematical operation that represents the removal of one number from another. For example, 10 - 4 = 6.

Front

What is the sum of 0 and any number?

Back

The sum of 0 and any number is that number itself. For example, 0 + 7 = 7.

Front

What is the difference between two numbers?

Back

The difference is the result of subtracting one number from another. For example, the difference between 10 and 4 is 6.

Front

What is the associative property of addition?

Back

The associative property states that when adding three or more numbers, the way in which the numbers are grouped does not change the sum. For example, (2 + 3) + 4 = 2 + (3 + 4).

Front

What is the commutative property of multiplication?

Back

The commutative property states that the order in which two numbers are multiplied does not change the product. For example, 4 x 5 = 5 x 4.

Front

What is the identity property of multiplication?

Back

The identity property states that any number multiplied by 1 remains unchanged. For example, 7 x 1 = 7.

Front

What is the identity property of addition?

Back

The identity property states that any number added to 0 remains unchanged. For example, 9 + 0 = 9.
