Want this question answered?
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.
What are the "following?"
Associative property
associative property example: (a+b)+c = a+(b+c)
Mainly the commutative property. But the fact that 30*8*7 is unambiguous and you do not need to write (30*8)*7 or 30*(8*7) is due to the associative property.
No, the associative property only applies to addition and multiplication, not subtraction or division. Here is an example which shows why it cannot work with subtraction: (6-4)-2=0 6-(4-2)=4

The associative property, for example a + b + c = a + c + b

The associative property of a binary operator denoted by ~ states that form 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 means that you can change the grouping of the expression and still have the same result. Addition and multiplication of numbers are associative, subtraction and division are not.
There is no property which allows you to do that in all cases. It is only possible in the case of the associative property for addition and multiplication. It does not work for subtraction or division.

Assuming that there is a "plus" after the second 58, the answer is - the associative property of addition.
( 2 + 7 ) + 10 = ( 7 + 10 ) + 2 ( 3 * 9 ) * 4 = 3 * ( 9 * 4 ) The associative property means you can move the terms of the expression around without changing the value. Multiplication and addition are both associative.
