| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| commutative property | The order in which numbers are or multiplied does not change the answer. |
| Associative property | The way in which numbers are grouped together when added or multiplied does not change the answer. |
| Identify property of multiplication | The product of any factor & 1 is the same as the factor |
| identify property of addition | the sum of an addend & 0 is the same as the addend. |
| Additive inverse | adding a number and its opposite will produce a sum of 0 |
| Multiplicative inverse | multiplying any number and its inverse (reciprocal) equals 2. |
| Factors | A number that divides another number evenly (with no remainder) |
| Associative Property | (x + 7) + 9 = x + (7 + 9) |
| Associative Property | 4(3 x 9) = (4 x 3)9 |
| Commutative Property | (x + 7) + 9 = 9 + (7 + x) |
| Commutative Property | 5 x 6 = 6 x 5 |
| Identity Property of Addition | x + 0 = x |
| Identity Property of Multiplication | 6(1) = 6 |
| Multiplicative Inverse Property | 4 x ¼ = 1 |
| Additive Inverse Property | -5 + 5 = 0 |
| Distributive Property | 4(x + 3) = 4x + 12 |
| Distributive Property | 16 + 40 = 8(2 + 5) |
