Multiplication is a mathematical operation where a number is added to itself a certain number of times.

The commutative property states that changing the order of the numbers you are adding does not change the sum. (e.g., 3 + 4 = 4 + 3)

The associative property states that when adding three or more numbers, the way in which the numbers are grouped does not change the sum. (e.g., (1 + 2) + 3 = 1 + (2 + 3))

The identity property states that when you add zero to any number, the sum is that number. (e.g., 5 + 0 = 5)

The identity property states that when you multiply any number by one, the product is that number. (e.g., 7 x 1 = 7)
