Question

Which of the following statements uses the commutative property of multiplication?2 × (9 × 5) = (2 × 9) × 57 × 0 = 01 × 10 = 108 × 4 = 4 × 8

Answer 1

The commutative property of multiplication has the next form:

`a\ast b=b\ast a`

It means that the order of multiplication does not affect the result.

Therefore, the correct statement is 8 × 4 = 4 × 8. Because 8*4 is the same as 4*8.
