How can we use the Commutative and Associative Properties to transform the expression 25 x (-16 x -4) into (25 x -4) x -16?
In this lesson you will learn to solve multiplication problemsby using the Commutative and Associative Properties.
Associative Property of Multiplication If a, b and c are rational numbers then a x (b x c) = (a x b) x c
Commutative Property of Multiplication If aand b are rational numbers then a x b = b x a
