Distributive, Associative, and Commutative

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

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

3 + (12 + 8) = 3 + (8 + 12)
