No
Is multiplication of whole numbers associative?
Yes.
Is the division of whole numbers associative?
No. For example, (81 / 9) / 3 = 9 / 3 = 3 81 / (9 / 3) = 81 / 3 = 27
Is multiplication of a whole number associative?
Yes. Multiplication of integers, of rational numbers, of real numbers, and even of complex numbers, is both commutative and associative.
Division of whole numbers is associative?
No it is not an associative property.
Is the division of whole numbers is associative?

No
What is a counterexample for the statement division of a whole number is associative?
Well, honey, the statement that division of a whole number is associative is as false as claiming you can wear a swimsuit in a blizzard. Just take the numbers 10, 5, and 2 for example. (10 ÷ 5) ÷ 2 is not the same as 10 ÷ (5 ÷ 2). So, there you have it - a sassy counterexample for you!
