Associative Property of Multiplication

Solve the problem below.

(3 × 2) × 7 = (3 × 7) × ______

• 2

• 3

• 5

• 7

Find the missing number to complete the associative property. 
(5 X 4) X 3 = ____ X (3 X 4)

• 5

• 2

• 4

• 3

Find the missing number to complete the associative property. 
(9 X 1) X 8 = ____ X (8 X 9)

• 8

• 9

• 1

• 5

Find the missing number to complete the associative property. 
(6 X 2) X 5 = ____ X (5 X 6)

• 2

• 5

• 6

• 10

Which property is represented below? (1 x 2) x 3 = 1 x (2 x 3)

• Commutative Property of Addition

• Associative Property of Addition

• Associative Property of Multiplication

• Identity

According to the Associative Property of Multiplication, (9 x 6) x 5 = 

• 270

• 9 x 30

• 9 x (6 x 5)

• 5 x 9 + 5 x 6

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

• 270

• 9 x 30

• 9 x (6 x 5)

• 5 x 9 + 5 x 6

Are  these two expressions equivalent?
2 • (3 • 7) and  (2 • 3) • 7 

• Yes, because of the associative property

• Yes, because of the commutative property

• Yes, because of the distributive property

• No, these two expressions are not exquivalent

(3 x 2) x 5 = 3 x (2 x 5) (a)  

• commutative property

• distributive property

• Zero property

• associative property

Which of these illustrates the Associative Property of Multiplication?

• 4x(5x6)=(4x5)x6

• 6+(9+1)=(6x9)+1)

• 4 x (56) = (45) x 6

• 5 + 0 = 0 + 5
