4*25*27 = (4*25)*27 = 100*27 = 2700
I am guessing your problem is to compute 5 times 2 times 13. In this case, the property you are using the associative property.
Answer: The associative property involves three numbers, not two. Of course, you can use one of the numbers more than once. For example, show, by calculation, that (2 x 2) x -2 = 2 x (2 x -2).
In general, the associative property cannot be used for this purpose. The volume of a prism is the area of cross section multiplied by the length, and except in the case of a rectangular prism, there is no scope for using the associative property.
For two factors, this is the commutative property. For more than two problems, if you change the factors using any arbitrary order, this usually implicitly involves using both the commutative and the associative properties.
12/(17/2)
Using multiplication 40 times 45 = 1800
The distributive property of multiplication over addition and the identity property of multiplication. RS + RS = 1*RS + 1*RS (using identity property) = (1 + 1)*RS (using distributive property) = 2*RS
You need the associative and commutative properties, but not the distributive property. n*4n*9 =n*(4n*9) (associative) = n*(9*4n) (commutative) = n*(36n) (associative) = 36n*n commutative = 36*n^2
it means like using the same numbers agsin for example 5 times 3 = 3 times 5 it is just like fact family

7 x 15 = 15 x 7 Basically, commutative property of multiplication states that the order in which they are multiplied does not matter.
49*12 = (50 - 1)*12 Then, using the distributive property of multiplication over subtraction. = 50*12 - 1*12 = 600 - 12 = 588
