The identity property for a binary operation (addition, multiplication, etc) simply states that there is a unique element (number) such that x ~ i = x = i ~ x
In terms of multiplication the identity property says that the number 1 exists with the property that 1*x = x = x*1 for all x
In terms of addition the identity property says that the number 0 exists with the property that 0+x = x = x+0 for all x
and so on for other binary operations.

What is an example of identity property?
0 is the additive identity for numbers and the identity property is illustrated by 1+0 = 1
What is the definition for the identity property?
The identity property is when you take a number and you can either add or subtract a certain number or fraction to it and it stays the same. You can remember that the ID (identity) stays the same. An example would be 9-0=9. The 9 stayed the same, even when you subtracted something from it. You could even do 6x1=6.
What property is it when you multiply by 1?
The identity property
What is an identity property?
The identity property is when a factor in an multiplication problem keeps its identity for example= eight times one equals eight (the eight keeps its identity)
What addition property is shown by the equation 373 plus 0 equals 373?
This is the identity property: the additive identity property of zero.
