What is the Associative Property of Multiplication?

Back

The Associative Property of Multiplication states that the way in which numbers are grouped in multiplication does not change the product. For example, (a x b) x c = a x (b x c).

Front

What is the Associative Property of Addition?

Back

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

Front

What is the Identity Property of Multiplication?

Back

The Identity Property of Multiplication states that any number multiplied by 1 remains unchanged. For example, a x 1 = a.

Front

What is the Commutative Property of Addition?

Back

The Commutative Property of Addition states that changing the order of the addends does not change the sum. For example, a + b = b + a.

Front

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 x b = b x a.

Front

What is the Distributive Property?

Back

The Distributive Property states that a number multiplied by a sum is equal to the sum of the products. For example, a(b + c) = ab + ac.

Front

Provide an example of the Associative Property of Addition.

Back

(2 + 3) + 4 = 2 + (3 + 4) = 9.

Front

Provide an example of the Identity Property of Addition.

Back

a + 0 = a. For example, 5 + 0 = 5.

Front

What does the equation (6 + 3) x 7 demonstrate?

Back

It demonstrates the Distributive Property: (6 + 3) x 7 = 6 x 7 + 3 x 7.

Front

Which equation shows the Commutative Property of Multiplication?

Back

yx = xy.
