The associative property of a binary operation states that the order in which the operations are carried out does not affect the result.
If x, y and z are elements of a set and # an operation defined on the set then
(x # y) # z = x # (y # z) and so either can be written as x # y # z, without ambiguity.
Addition and multiplication are associative operations.
So, for example, (3 + 2) + 4 = 5 + 4 = 9
and 3 + (2 + 4) = 3 + 6 = 9

What is a short definition for Associative Property?
In general, the associative property states that "a · (b · c) = (a · b) · c" for some operation "·". In other words, if an operation is associative, the order in which multiple calculations involving it are performed is irrelevant.
What is the definition of assocative property of multiplication?
The associative property definition is this : you can group two numbers multiply them together then multiply that product by the other number. For example (3x3)x3=27 so basically all the associative property is about is grouping the numbers in different ways and making the problem faster and easier depending on what numbers you are multiplying. Hope that makes it easier 
