Answer:

Multiplication identity

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:


25\text{ \textbullet 1 = 25}

To find:

the name of the property above

From the equation given, we find that the multiplication gives back one of the previous numbers.

This property is a characteristic of an identity property.


\begin{gathered} There\text{ 2 identity properties:} \\ a\text{ + 0 = a \lparen addition identity property\rparen} \\ \\ a\text{ }*\text{ 1 = a \lparen multiplication identity property\rparen} \end{gathered}
\begin{gathered} \text{25 \textbullet 1 = 25 }*\text{ 1} \\ 25*1\text{ = 25} \\ The\text{ number multiplied by 1 gives back the number as the result} \\ \\ Hence,\text{ 25 \textbullet1 = 25 is a multiplication identity} \end{gathered}
