A definition for associative property of multiplication and explain how you use it to compute 4 x 25 x 27?

The associative property is defined as follows:
(a*b)*c = a*(b*c), that is, when carrying out a number of multiplications, it does not matter which multiplications you carry out first.
So, you could compute 4*25*27 the hard way as 4*(25*27) = 4*675 and then 4*675 = 2700
but you might note that 4*25 = 100, and so doing that multiplication first makes the whole thing much simpler:
4*25*27 = (4*25)*27 = 100*27 = 2700

What is associative property of multiplication and how can you use it to compute 4x27x25 mentally?
dont know about associative property but this one is easy in your head. 4x25=100x27=2700
Write a definition for the the Associative Property of Multiplication in your own words and explain how you would use it to compute 4x25x27 mentally.?
the property which states that for all real numbers a,b,and c their product is always the same, regardless of their grouping
How can the associative property of multiplication be used to compute 14 x 2 x 50 mentally?
Do the 2 x 50 first. Get 100. Multiply that by 14.
How can the associative property of multiplication be used to compute 14 times 2 times 50?
The associative property states that the order in which a binary operation is carried out does not matter. So, 14*2*50 = 14*(2*50) = 14*100 = 1400
How would you use associative property of multiplication to compute 4X25X27?
4*25 = 100 So 4*25*27 = (4*25)*27 = 100*27 = 2700
In the following problem what property allows you to multiply 5 by 2 before multiplying by 13?
I am guessing your problem is to compute 5 times 2 times 13. In this case, the property you are using the associative property.
What is a definition for the associative property of multiplication and how you would use it to compute 4 times 25 times 27 mentally?
The addition or multiplication of a set of numbers is the same regardless of how the numbers are grouped. The associative property will involve 3 or more numbers. The parenthesis indicates the terms that are considered one unit.The groupings (Associative Property) are within the parenthesis. Hence, the numbers are 'associated' together. In multiplication, the product is always the same regardless of their grouping. The Associative Property is pretty basic to computational strategies. Remember, the groupings in the brackets are always done first, this is part of the order of operations.When we change the groupings of addends, the sum does not change:(2 + 5) + 4 = 11 or 2 + (5 + 4) = 11(9 + 3) + 4 = 16 or 9 + (3 + 4) = 16Just remember that when the grouping of addends changes, the sum remains the same.Multiplication ExampleWhen we change the groupings of factors, the product does not change:(3 x 2) x 4 = 24 or 3 x (2 x 4) = 24.Just remember that when the grouping of factors changes, the product remains the same.Think Grouping! Changing the grouping of addends does not change the sum, changing the groupings of factors, does not change the product.*** 4x(25x27) = (4x25)x27***
How do you compute 4x27x25 mentally?
if you mean multiplication then 4x25=100 x 27 = 270
How do you compute metric conversion factors?
Once you look up the conversion factor, it is just a matter of multiplication.
How do you compute mean deviation?
You don't need to. The mean deviation is, by definition, zero.
What do multiplication and division mean in math terms?
Multiplication and division are mathematical operations. They are inverses, which means that they are opposites, so multiplying and dividing a number by the same constant yields the original number.Often multiplication is taught as taught as repeated addition- 7 multiplied by three is adding 3 sevens together. Although this works to compute positive whole numbers, it is not the mathematical definition. Mathematically, multiplication is the act of scaling numbers together.Division is the inverse of scaling numbers together. To visualize division, imagine a large object being divided into small, equal pieces.
How do you write an English form of algorithms to compute the product of any 3 numbers?
Multiply the first two factors. Multiply the result of the previous multiplication with the third factor.
