Question
Rewrite (9 × 6) × 5 using the associative property.
- 270
- 9 × 30
- 9 × (6 × 5)
- 5 × 9 + 5 × 6
Hint:
The correct answer is: 9 × (6 × 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.
Using associative property,
(9 × 6) × 5 can be rewritten as 9 × (6 × 5).
Therefore, rewritten expression after application of associative property is 9 × (6 × 5).
