4th Grade Vocabulary - Topic 3/4

What are the associative, distributive, and commutative properties of multiplication?

• Associative: a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c
• Distributive: a * b + c = a * (b + c)
• The associative, distributive, and commutative properties of multiplication are: 1) Associative: (a * b) * c = a * (b * c); 2) Distributive: a * (b + c) = (a * b) + (a * c); 3) Commutative: a * b = b * a.
• Commutative: a + b = b + a
