To me this looks an equation that would fall under the commutative property of multiplication but i’m not seeing that as a possible answer so if you can i would put commutative property of multiplication:)

Answer: C. the Inverse Property of Multiplication.

Explanation:

  • The Inverse Property of Multiplication says that when a number is multiplied by its reciprocal , then we get 1.

The given equation :
3\cdot(1)/(3)=1

Here,
(1)/(3) is the reciprocal of 3.

Also, their product is 1.

Therefore, the property of numbers is demonstrated in the given equation is Inverse Property of Multiplication.
