1A Unit 1 Lesson 2 Properties of Real Numbers

$$4\cdot2=2\cdot4$$ is an example of the Commutative Property of Multiplication.

$$7\cdot\left(2\cdot4\right)=\left(7+2\right)+4$$ is an example of the Associative Property of Multiplication.

What number would you multiply $$\frac{2}{3}$$ by to show the Inverse Property of Multiplication?

Hint: what is the reciprocal of $$\frac{2}{3}$$ ?

When using the Distributive Property, you do NOT have to multiply everything inside the parentheses by the number in front.

If 5=b, then b=5 is an example of which property?
