The property shown is the associative property.
The associative property allows one to move parenthesis and still keep the equation's value the same.

Answer:

Associative property of multiplication is satisfied by the expression a(b × c ) = (a× b)c .

Explanation:

Definition of associative property of multiplication .

Let us assume three numbers be x , y and z .

x × (y × z) = (x × y) × z

This property is called associative property of multiplication .

As given the expression

a(b × c ) = (a× b)c

This satisfied the above property .

Therefore associative property of multiplication is satisfied by the expression a(b × c ) = (a× b)c .
