Associative property of multiplication states that: (ab)c = a(bc) In words, no matter which order you multiply the numbers by, you obtain the same results.
a+(b+c)=(a+b)+c if you have multiple addition or multiplication numbers in parenthesis then the numbers in the parenthesis' order doesn't matter
the order in which you multiply the numbers doesn't matter. example: 6x4x2 you can multiply it in that order, or you can do 6x2x4
This is called the commutative property of multiplication. Like addition, the order of the numbers does not matter: the product is the same.Compare this with subtraction and division which are not commutative.
The Commutative property applies to both addition and multiplication. It states that the answer is independent of the order of the expression. In other words, it does not matter in which order you put the numbers in the problem.For example, in addition:3 + 5 = 8is the same as:5 + 3 = 8It does not matter in which order you place the numbers, the answer is still the same.Similarly, for multiplication:9 x 7 = 63is the same as:7 x 9 = 63
