Understanding the Commutative Property of Multiplication

The video tutorial explains the commutative property of multiplication, which states that changing the order of factors does not change the product. It uses examples with factors 4 and 6, and 3 and 7, to demonstrate this property. Arrays are used to visually represent the multiplication process, showing how rotating the array maintains the product. The video concludes with a call to action for viewers to like and subscribe.

What does the commutative property of multiplication state?

• The product changes when the order of factors is changed.

• The order of factors can be changed without affecting the product.

• The sum of factors remains constant.

• Multiplication is only possible with equal factors.

In the example of 4 times 6, what is the product?

• 20

• 24

• 28

• 26

How many rows and columns are there in the array for 4 times 6?

• 4 rows and 4 columns

• 6 rows and 6 columns

• 6 rows and 4 columns

• 4 rows and 6 columns

What is the result of 6 times 4 according to the commutative property?

• 20

• 26

• 22

• 24

In the example of 3 times 7, what is the product?

• 20

• 21

• 19

• 18

How does the array change when demonstrating 7 times 3?

• It has 3 rows and 7 columns.

• It has 7 rows and 3 columns.

• It has 6 rows and 4 columns.

• It has 4 rows and 6 columns.

What multiplication sentence can be written for an array with 3 rows and 7 columns?

• 3 times 7 equals 20

• 3 times 7 equals 21

• 3 times 7 equals 22

• 3 times 7 equals 23

What is the related multiplication sentence when the array is flipped for 3 times 7?

• 7 times 3 equals 22

• 7 times 3 equals 23

• 7 times 3 equals 21

• 7 times 3 equals 20
