Properties of Multiplication

Which number sentence is an example of the associative property?

• 19+6=5x5
• 3x9=9+3
• 3x(2x6)=(3x2)x6
• 4x0-4+0

The Identity property tells us that any number multiplied by 1 is that number.  Which expression below is an example of this property?

• 2x0=0
• 2x2=4
• 2+1=3
• 2x1=2

Which property is being used in the equation below?
10 x 8 = 8 x 10

• Identity Property
• Equality Property
• Commutative Property
• Associative Property

The Zero Property of Multiplication states that any number multiplied by zero is equal to zero.  
Which expression below is an example of this property?

• 3x1=3
• 3x0=0
• 3+1=4
• 3+0=3

Which example DOES NOT show the commutative property?

•  6 x 2=2 x 6 
• 3 x 1=3 
• 4 x 5=5 x 4
• 3 x 1=3 x 1

Which equation represents the distributive property of the following equation:
4 x 7

• (4 x 3) + (4 x 4)
• (4 + 3) x (4 + 4)
• (4 x 3) x (4 x 4)
• (4 + 3) + (4 + 4)

How can 5x5 = be expressed using the distributive property?

• 5(4) x 5(1)

• (5 x 4) x (5 x 1)

• (5 x 4) + (5 x 1)

• (5 + 4) x (5 + 1)

Which property is this an example of?
9 x 1 = 9

• Identity Property of Multiplication
• Commutative Property of Multiplication
• Associative Property of Multiplication
• Multiplicative Inverse

The commutative property of multiplication states that the order of the numbers in an equation:

• Should go from least to greatest
• Doesn't change the product
• Should go from greatest to least
• Is always important

Rewrite 9 x (6 x 5) using the associative property:

• 270

• (9 x 6) x 5

• 9 x 6 + 6 x 5

• 965
