Properties of Multiplication and Division

The commutative property says that if 4x6=24, then

• 3x8=24

• 4x5=20

• 6x4=24

• 6+4=10

Which property states you can switch the order of the factors and the product stays the same?

• Identity

• Commutative

• Associative

• Distributive

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 of multiplication 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 is an example of the commutative property of multiplication?

• 4 x (1 x 2) = (4 x 1) x 2

• 2 x 2 = 4 x 1

• 2(3) = 2(4)

• 3 x 4 = 4 x 3

Which of these illustrates the associative property of multiplication?

• 4 x (5 x 6) = (4 x 5) x 6

• 6 (9 + 1) = (6 x 9) + (6 x 1)

• 4 x (56) = (45) x 6

• 5 + 0 = 0 + 5

How could you solve 5 x 24 using Distributive Property?

• 5 x (20 + 4) =

  (5x20) + (5x4)

• (5x20) x (5x4)

• (5+20) x (5+4)

• 5 x 2 x 4

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 property of multiplication is shown below:
1 × 83 = 83

• Commutative Property

• Associative Property

• Identity Property

• Zero Property

States that the product of the number and 1 is that number.

• Identity Property of Zero

• Identity Property of Multiplication

• Identity Property of Addition

• Multiplicative Property of Zero
