Back

Additive Identity Property

Front

What is the Commutative Property?

Back

The property that states the order of addition or multiplication does not change the result. Example: a + b = b + a.

Front

What is the Associative Property?

Back

The property that states the way numbers are grouped does not change the sum or product. Example: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c).

Front

What is the Distributive Property?

Back

The property that states a(b + c) = ab + ac. It allows you to multiply a number by a sum.

Front

What is the Additive Inverse?

Back

The number that, when added to a given number, results in zero. Example: The additive inverse of 5 is -5.

Front

What is the Identity Property of Multiplication?

Back

The property that states any number multiplied by 1 remains unchanged. Example: a × 1 = a.
