Multiplicative Inverse Property

A multiplicative inverse is a reciprocal. What is a reciprocal? A reciprocal is one of a pair of numbers that when multiplied with another number equals the number 1.

Associative Property Of Addition 2

Associative Property Of Addition claims that you can do both multiply or add numbers, and it doesn't matter how the numbers are grouped.

Commutative Property Of Addition 2

Commutative Property Of Addition helps you move different numbers around the equation so you can solve for the solution.

Associative Property of Multiplication 2

For Example: If you do 1+(2+3)=, it is the same as (1+2)=3.

Multiplicative Inverse Property 2

For example, if we have the number 7, the multiplicative inverse, or reciprocal, would be 1/7 because when you multiply 7 and 1/7 together, you get 1.

Multiplicative Identity Property 2

Multiplicative Identity Property can help you multiply a number by one, the product of an equation, an original number, or the result of an equation.

Multiplicative Property Of Zero 2

Multiplicative Property Of Zero reveals that the product of any number and zero is zero, and will always be zero.

Commutative Property Of Addition

The word "commutative" comes from "commute" or "move around", so the Commutative Property is the one that refers to moving stuff around. For addition, the rule is "a + b = b + a"; in numbers, this means 2 + 3 = 3 + 2.

Additive Identity Property 2

Additive Identity Property helps you know that you can add a real number to zero, or you can add zero to a real number, either way, it will show the additive identity property.

Additive Inverse Property 2

Additive Inverse Property can help you create the sum of zero by adding the opposite sign of the original number you had.

Commutative Property Of Multiplication 2

Commutative property Of Multiplication can help you have two numbers that are able to be multiplied in any order.

Multiplicative Property Of Zero

One of zero's unique rules is called the multiplication property. The multiplication property states that the product of any number and zero is zero. It doesn't matter what the number is, when you multiply it to zero, you get zero as the answer. ... 2 x 0 = 0.

Commutative Property Of Multiplication

The Commutative Property of Multiplication. The commutative property of multiplication states that two numbers can be multiplied in either order.For multiplication, the rule is "ab = ba"; in numbers, this means 2×3 = 3×2.

Multiplicative Identity Property

The Multiplicative Identity Property. For a property with such a long name, it's really a simple math law. The multiplicative identity property states that any time you multiply a number by 1, the result, or product, is that original number.

Additive Identity Property

The additive identity property says that if you add a real number to zero or add zero to a real number, then you get the same real number back. The number zero is known as the identity element, or the additive identity.

Additive Inverse Property

The additive inverse of a number is what you add to a number to create the sum of zero. So in other words, the additive inverse of x is another number, y, as long as the sum of x + y equals zero. The additive inverse of x is equal and opposite in sign to it (so, y = -x or vice versa).

Associative Property of Multiplication

The associative property of multiplication states that no matter how the numbers are group with parenthesis or no, the answer will be the same.

Associative Property Of Addition

The associative property states that you can add or multiply regardless of how the numbers are grouped. By 'grouped' we mean 'how you use parenthesis'. In other words, if you are adding or multiplying it does not matter where you put the parenthesis.
