Question
Rewrite (9 × 3) × 5 using the associative property.
- 270
- 9 × 30
- 9 × (3 × 5)
- 5 × 9 + 5 × 6
The correct answer is: 9 × (3 × 5)
To rewrite the expression using associative property.
The associative property states that the sum or the product of three or more numbers does not change if they are grouped in a different way.
Therefore, the given expression can be changed as (9 × 3) × 5 = 9 × (3 × 5)
Hence, rewritten expression after application of associative property is 9 × (3 × 5).
