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 of that number and each addend. For example, a(b + c) = ab + ac.

What is the Associative Property of Multiplication?

Back

The Associative Property of Multiplication states that the way in which numbers are grouped when multiplying does not change the product. For example, (2 x 3) x 4 = 2 x (3 x 4).

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, 3 + 5 = 5 + 3.

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, 4 x 6 = 6 x 4.

Front

What is an example of the Distributive Property?

Back

An example of the Distributive Property is: 3(4 + 5) = 3 x 4 + 3 x 5, which equals 12 + 15 = 27.

Front

What does it mean to 'move the parentheses' in multiplication?

Back

Moving the parentheses in multiplication means you can group the numbers differently without changing the result, as shown in the Associative Property of Multiplication.

If 5 + 6 = 11, what is the equivalent expression using the Commutative Property?

Back

6 + 5 = 11.

Front

What is the result of (4 x 2) x 5?

Back

The result is 40, and it can also be calculated as 4 x (2 x 5) due to the Associative Property.

What is the missing number in the equation 6 x ? = 54?

Back

The missing number is 9, because 6 x 9 = 54.
