Exploring Math Properties and Their Applications

What should you do with the slides shown on the computer?

• Copy and paste them into your digital notebook

• Ignore them

• Print them out

• Memorize them

What does the Associative Property state?

• Changing the order of numbers affects the solution

• Multiplying a number by one changes its value

• Changing the grouping of numbers does not affect the solution

• Adding zero to a number changes its value

Which of the following is an example of the Associative Property?

• (5 + 2) + 4 = 5 + (2 + 4)

• 5 + 2 = 2 + 5

• 5 * (2 + 3) = 5 * 2 + 5 * 3

• 5 * 1 = 5

What does the Commutative Property state?

• Changing the order of numbers does not affect the solution

• Multiplying a number by one changes its value

• Changing the grouping of numbers affects the solution

• Adding zero to a number changes its value

Which of the following is an example of the Commutative Property?

• (5 + 2) + 4 = 5 + (2 + 4)

• 5 + 2 = 2 + 5

• 5 * (2 + 3) = 5 * 2 + 5 * 3

• 5 * 1 = 5

What does the Distributive Property state?

• Changing the grouping of numbers does not affect the solution

• Adding zero to a number changes its value

• Changing the order of numbers affects the solution

• Multiplying a number by a group of numbers added together is the same as doing each multiplication separately

Which of the following is an example of the Distributive Property?

• (5 + 2) + 4 = 5 + (2 + 4)

• 5 + 2 = 2 + 5

• 5 * (2 + 3) = 5 * 2 + 5 * 3

• 5 * 1 = 5

What does the Additive Identity Property state?

• Changing the grouping of numbers does not affect the solution

• Changing the order of numbers affects the solution

• Multiplying a number by one changes its value

• Adding zero to a number does not change its value

What does the Multiplicative Identity Property state?

• Changing the grouping of numbers does not affect the solution

• Changing the order of numbers affects the solution

• Multiplying a number by one does not change its value

• Adding zero to a number changes its value
