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. Example: a + b = b + a.

What is the Associative Property of Addition?

Back

The Associative Property of Addition states that the way in which numbers are grouped does not change the sum. Example: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c).

Front

What is the Identity Property of Addition?

Back

The Identity Property of Addition states that adding zero to any number does not change the number. Example: a + 0 = a.

Front

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. Example: a × b = b × a.

Front

What is the Associative Property of Multiplication?

Back

The Associative Property of Multiplication states that the way in which numbers are grouped does not change the product. Example: (a × b) × c = a × (b × c).
