We can apply the four properties of multiplication.
a. Commutative property:
Two numbers can be multiplied even if they change places.
Ex. 3 x 8 = 24 8 x 3=24
b. Associative Property
c. Multiplying the numbers by grouping does not affect the answer. Ex. 3 (9 x 2) = (3 x 9) 2
d. Identity property Any number multiplied to one gets the same number as the answer.
7 x 1 = 7
