Exploring Basic Mathematical Properties

What is the main idea behind the commutative property?

• Changing the grouping of numbers

• Adding numbers

• Moving numbers around

• Distributing numbers

Which of the following operations does NOT have a commutative property?

• None of the above

• Subtraction

• Multiplication

• Addition

What is the result of 8 times 3 according to the commutative property?

• 8

• 3

• 24

• 11

What does the associative property focus on?

• Distributing numbers

• Moving numbers around

• Changing the order of operations

• Grouping numbers with parentheses

In the associative property of addition, what happens when you change the grouping of numbers?

• The result changes

• The numbers change

• The result remains the same

• The operation changes

Why might you want to use the associative property in addition?

• To get a different result

• To change the operation

• To change the numbers

• To make calculations easier

What does the distributive property involve?

• Changing the order of operations

• Moving numbers around

• Sharing an outside number with inside numbers

• Grouping numbers with parentheses

In the distributive property, what operation is performed with the outside number?

• Addition

• Subtraction

• Division

• Multiplication

What is the result of 5 times (B + 4) using the distributive property?

• 5 + 4B

• 5B + 20

• 5B + 4

• 5 + 20
