Properties of Multiplication
Notes
Commutative Property-factors can be multiplied in any order and the product remains the same.
3x4=4x3 6x7=7x6 _________________
Identity Property- the product of any number times 1 is that number.
4x1=4 1x5=5 _____________________
Associative Property- the grouping of factors can be changed without changing the product. Notice the order or the numbers stays the same … only the parenthesis move.
(4x5)x2=4x(5x2) _______________________
Zero Property- the product of any number and zero is zero
6x0=0 0x3=0 _____________________
Let’s Practice Properties of Multiplication! Associative Property Identity Property Zero Property Commutative Property
Tell which property of multiplication is being shown
- 5x(9x3)-(5x9)x3 _________________________
- 73x0 =0 ________________________________
- 432x1=431 ______________________________
- 56x8=8x56 ______________________________
- 0x45=45 _________________________________
- 1x836=836 _______________________________
