For this case we have that by definition, the associative property is defined as:


(a * b) * c = a * (b * c)

So, if we have the following expression:


7 * (8 * 9) = (7 * 8) * 9

According to the mentioned property we can verify that it is the associative property.

Answer:

Associative property

Option D
