What is the Identity Property of Addition?

Back

The Identity Property of Addition states that when you add zero to any number, the sum is that number. For example, a + 0 = a.

Front

What is the Additive Inverse Property?

Back

The Additive Inverse Property states that for every number a, there is a number -a such that a + (-a) = 0.

What is the Commutative Property of Multiplication?

Back

The Commutative Property of Multiplication states that changing the order of the factors does not change the product. For example, a × b = b × a.

Front

What is the Identity Property of Multiplication?

Back

The Identity Property of Multiplication states that when you multiply any number by one, the product is that number. For example, a × 1 = a.

What is the Associative Property of Addition?

Back

The Associative Property of Addition states that the way in which numbers are grouped does not change their sum. For example, (a + b) + c = a + (b + c).
