They are the associative property, distributive property and the commutative property.
The associative property in algebra is important for organization of numbers. Rearranging the numbers and parenthesis will not change values but instead make the equation more convenient.
All i know is how to remember associative property. In associative property you can have the parentheses in between any numbers and it will be the same answer.
associative property example: (a+b)+c = a+(b+c)
The way in which numbers are grouped when added or multiplied does not change the sum or product.In symbols the associative property of addition says that (a+b) +c = a + (b +c) where a,b, and c are any numbers.The associative property for multiplication says that (ab)c=a(bc).Informally, the associative property says that grouping does not matter when applying the operation.
