Question

Select the multiplication sentence that applies the associative property of multiplication to the example. Example: (5 × 3) × 2 = 30 A. (5 + 3) × 2 = 16 B. 5 × (3 + 2) = 25 C. 5 × (3 × 2) = 30 D. 2 + (4 × 7) = 30

Answer 1

Answer : C

A. (5 + 3) × 2 = 16

Here we have 5 +3 . there is a + sign in between. so it does not comes under Associative property of multiplication

B. 5 × (3 + 2) = 25

We have 3 + 2 . there is a + sign in between. so it does not comes under Associative property of multiplication

C. 5 × (3 × 2) = 30

we have 5 times 3 times 2. so it comes under Associative property of multiplication

D. 2 + (4 × 7) = 30

We have 2 + . there is a + sign in between. so it does not comes under Associative property of multiplication
