The Associative Property is when you switch the parenthesis and your results should be the same results (if you didn't you did something wrong). The Associative Property only works for Addition and Multiplication ........NOT DIVISION OR SUBTRACTION!!!
Ex: 7+(10+13)
7+23
30
(7+10)+13
17+13
30

the associative property of addition means that changing the grouping of the addends doesn't affect the sum
(a+b)+c = a+ (b+c).
Changing the grouping of the factors. The product stays the same.
In general, the associative property states that "a · (b · c) = (a · b) · c" for some operation "·". In other words, if an operation is associative, the order in which multiple calculations involving it are performed is irrelevant.

there is not division for the associative property
It is a result of the associative property of numbers.It is a result of the associative property of numbers.It is a result of the associative property of numbers.It is a result of the associative property of numbers.
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. The associative property of multiplication means that you can change the grouping of the expression and still have the same product.
No it is not an associative property.
There is no synonym for the associative properties.
The associative property does not apply to division but multiplication and addition do.
