1)  

 Which equation shows the associative property of addition





Answer: 4


SOLUTION 1 :

Associative property: (d + f) + g = d + (f + g)
You can group the addends with brackets and get the same sum.

1 + (7 + 4) = (1 + 7) + 4

This equation shows the associative property. The grouping of the addends is changed.



2)  

 Which property of addition is shown

a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c





Answer: 2


SOLUTION 1 :

Associative property:
You can group the addends with brackets and get the same sum.

a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c

This equation shows the associative property. The grouping of the addends is changed.



3)  

 Which equation shows the distributive property of multiplication





Answer: 2


SOLUTION 1 :

Distributive property:
You can multiply a sum by multiplying each addend separately.

The distributive property works with subtraction, too

(4 – 3)x0 = 4x0 – 3x0

This equation shows the distributive property. Multiplication distributes over addition or subtraction.



4)  

 Which equation shows the identity property of multiplication





Answer: 4


SOLUTION 1 :

Identity property:
Multiplying by 1 does not change a number

8 = 1x 8

This equation shows the identity property. Multiplying by 1 does not change the number.

 



5)  

 Which equation shows the identity property of addition





Answer: 1


SOLUTION 1 :

Identity property: q = 0 + q
Adding zero does not change a number.

0 + 9 = 9

This equation shows the identity property. Adding zero does not change the sum.



6)  

 Which equation shows the zero property of multiplication





Answer: 2


SOLUTION 1 :

Zero property:
Multiplying by 0 always gives 0

0x7 = 0

This equation shows the zero property. 0 times any number is always 0. 



7)  

 Which property of addition is shown

c = c + 0





Answer: 1


SOLUTION 1 :

Identity property:
Adding zero does not change a number.

c = c + 0

This equation shows the identity property. Adding zero does not change the sum.



8)  

 Which equation shows the commutative property of addition





Answer: 1


SOLUTION 1 :

Commutative property:
You can add numbers in any order and get the same sum.

m + n = n + m

This equation shows the commutative property. The order of the addends is changed.



9)  

 Which equation shows the associative property of multiplication





Answer: 1


SOLUTION 1 :

Associative property:
You can group the factors in any way without changing the result.

(cxd)xf = cx(dxf)

This equation shows the associative property. The grouping of the factors is changed.



10)  

 Which property of multiplication is shown

0 x s = 0





Answer: 1


SOLUTION 1 :

Zero property:
Multiplying by 0 always gives 0.

0 x s = 0

This equation shows the zero property. 0 times any number is always 0.
