The answer is 16 x 25, because no matter how it is written the answer will be the same. This rule also applies for addition as well as multiplication.

Suppose you were trying to multiply 17 x 5 x 2. The associative property states that (17 x 5) x 2 = 17 x (5 x 2) The second one is easier to do in your head.
It is the associative property, according to which, you do not need to specify which of the two multiplications has to be carried out first.
This is an example of the commutative property of multiplication
associative property
No. Rearranging numbers [2+3=3+2] is the commutative property. The associative property involves rearranging parentheses - (3 x 4) x 6 = 3 x (4 x 6).
Yes.
No, this is the commutative property. For addition, the associative property is: x + (y + z) = (x + y ) + z
The answer is 16 x 25, because no matter how it is written the answer will be the same. This rule also applies for addition as well as multiplication.

The commutative property holds that the results are the same no matter the order. Multiplication is commutative since a x b = b x a. The associative property holds that the results are the same no matter the grouping as long as the order stays the same. Multiplication is associative since (a x b) x c = a x (b x c)
(4X25) x 27
no
(a x b) x c = a x (b x c)
No.
(a x b) x c = a x (b x c)
