Term
use the commutative property to solve.
-8+5=5+
|
|
Definition
by using the commutative property of addition,the missing number is -8 because
-8+5=5+(-8)
|
|

Term
Commutative Property of Multiplication: It states that changing the order of factors does not change the product. |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
use the commutative property of multiplication to solve.
-2(7)=___(-2)
|
|
Definition
by using the commutative property of multiplication,the missing number is 7,since
-2(7)=7(-2)
|
|
|
Term
solve using the commutative property
x+9=9+__ |
|
Definition
x+9=9+x
the missing variable was x
|
|
|
Term
solve the statement using the commuative property.
-12(4)=__(-12)
|
|
Definition
-12(4)=4(-12)
the missing number was 4 |
|
|
Term
Associative property states that the change in grouping of three or more addends or factors does not change their sum or product. |
|
Definition
that is,
addition
(a+b)+c=a+(b+c)
multiplication
(ab)c=a(bc)
|
|
|
Term
complete the statement using the associative property.
(9+10)+(-3)=9+[____+(-3)]
|
|
Definition
the missing number is 10..so,
(9+10)+(-3)=9[10+(-3)]
|
|
|
Term
complete the statement using the associative property.
-5+(2+8)=(______)+8
|
|
Definition
-5+2 goes in the missing space
because,
-5+(2+8)=(-5+2)+8
|
|
|
Term
solve the statement using the associative property.
10*[-8*(-3)]=
|
|
Definition
10*[-8*(-3)]=[10*(-8)]*(-3) |
|
|
Term
That is: a(b + c) = ab + ac
|
|
Definition
example
5(3 + 1) = 5 × 3 + 5 × 1 |
|
|
