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)
No. Rearranging numbers [2+3=3+2] is the commutative property. The associative property involves rearranging parentheses - (3 x 4) x 6 = 3 x (4 x 6).
no
The associative property of multiplication. For an example of the associative property, read on. 2 x 3 x 4= 2 x 3 x 4. Simple, huh?
Division (and subtraction, for that matter) is not associative. Here is an example to show that it is not associative: (8/4)/2 = 2/2 = 1 8/(4/2) = 8/2 = 4 Addition and multiplication are the only two arithmetic operations that have the associative property.
