The associative property of multiplication states that for any three numbers a, b and c,
(a * b) * c = a * (b * c) and so we can write either as a * b * c without ambiguity.
By way of contrast, this is not true for division:
75 / (15/5) = 75 / 3 = 25
but
(75/15) / 3 = 5/3 = 1.66...
There is only one associative property for multiplication: there is not a separate "regular" version.
No, you cannot have subtraction in the associative property of multiplication because the associative property of multiplication is about multiplication. More to the point, if you're asking whether subtraction is associative, the answer is still no. (2 - 3) - 4 does not equal 2 - (3 - 4)
it depends wht kind (multiplication, addition)
Nothing. Multiplication is commutative and associative.Nothing. Multiplication is commutative and associative.Nothing. Multiplication is commutative and associative.Nothing. Multiplication is commutative and associative.
No.
The associative property states that the result of an addition or multiplication sentence will be the same no matter the grouping of the terms. Associative: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) (a × b) × c = a × (b × c)
They are the Associative Property of Multiplication, the Commutative Property of Multiplication, and the Zero Property of Multiplication.
it does
Yes.
Yes. Multiplication of integers, of rational numbers, of real numbers, and even of complex numbers, is both commutative and associative.
Commutative: a × b = b × a Associative: (a × b) × c = a × (b × c) Distributive: a × (b + c) = a × b + a × c
its like a fatality
