The video tutorial explains the associative property of multiplication, demonstrating that the way factors are grouped does not affect the product. Through multiple examples, it shows that regardless of how numbers are grouped, the result remains the same, reinforcing the concept with step-by-step calculations.

What does the associative property of multiplication state?

• Multiplication is distributive.

• The way factors are grouped does not change the product.

• The order of factors changes the product.
