What is the property of multiplication?
Properties Of Multiplication:
There are four properties of multiplication that help in solving problems easily.
They are the commutative, associative, multiplicative identity and distributive property.
Commutative Property: When two numbers are multiplied together, the product is the same regardless of the order of the multiplicands.
For example 3 $\times$ 2 = 2 $\times$ 3
Associative Property: When three or more numbers are multiplied, the product is the same regardless of the grouping of the factors.
For example $(5 \times3) \times 6 = 5 \times (3 \times 6)$.
Multiplicative Identity Property: The product of any number and one is that number. For example 8 $\times$1 = 8.
Distributive property: The sum of two numbers times a third number is equal to the sum of each addend times the third number.
For example $2 \times(6 + 4) = 2\times6 + 2\times4$.
