True.
Changing the grouping of the factors. The product stays the same.
The associative property states that the change in grouping of three or more addends or factors does not change their sum or product. An example would be: When adding- (a+b)+c is the same as a+(b+c) When multiplying- (ab)c is the same as a(bc) Note: "a", "b", and "c" are undefined variables
Fundamental theorem of arithmetic :- Every composite number can be expressed (factorized) as a product of primes, and this factorization is unique . apart from the other in which factors occur.

The associative property
Associative Property
The addition or multiplication of a set of numbers is the same regardless of how the numbers are grouped. The associative property will involve 3 or more numbers. The parenthesis indicates the terms that are considered one unit.The groupings (Associative Property) are within the parenthesis. Hence, the numbers are 'associated' together. In multiplication, the product is always the same regardless of their grouping. The Associative Property is pretty basic to computational strategies. Remember, the groupings in the brackets are always done first, this is part of the order of operations.When we change the groupings of addends, the sum does not change:(2 + 5) + 4 = 11 or 2 + (5 + 4) = 11(9 + 3) + 4 = 16 or 9 + (3 + 4) = 16Just remember that when the grouping of addends changes, the sum remains the same.Multiplication ExampleWhen we change the groupings of factors, the product does not change:(3 x 2) x 4 = 24 or 3 x (2 x 4) = 24.Just remember that when the grouping of factors changes, the product remains the same.Think Grouping! Changing the grouping of addends does not change the sum, changing the groupings of factors, does not change the product.*** 4x(25x27) = (4x25)x27***
Changing the grouping of the factors. The product stays the same.
Start with the product. There are fewer factors than addends.1,3602,1803,1204,905,726,608,459,4010,3612,30 We have a winner!!!15,2418,20
The commutative property of multiplication
No, but if you're talking about factors, the result is a product. (a × b) × c = a × (b × c)

The Law of 4 Laws of addition and multiplication Commutative laws of addition and multiplication. Associative laws of addition and multiplication. Distributive law of multiplication over addition. Commutative law of addition: m + n = n + m . A sum isn't changed at rearrangement of its addends. Commutative law of multiplication: m · n = n · m . A product isn't changed at rearrangement of its factors. Associative law of addition: ( m + n ) + k = m + ( n + k ) = m + n + k . A sum doesn't depend on grouping of its addends. Associative law of multiplication: ( m · n ) · k = m · ( n · k ) = m · n · k . A product doesn't depend on grouping of its factors. Distributive law of multiplication over addition: ( m + n ) · k = m · k + n · k . This law expands the rules of operations with brackets (see the previous section).
