True or False? Commutative property can be used with subtraction/division.

• True, you can change the order with these operations and get the same answer.

• False, you cannot change the order because it gives you a different answer.

Determine which equation shows associative property.

• (a + b) + c = a + (b+ c)

• abc = cab

• a(b+c) = ab + ac

• (a+b) + c = (b+a) + c

Determine which equation shows associative property.

• 2 + 4 + 6 = 6 + 4 + 2

• (2 + 4) + 6 = 2 + (4+6)

• 2 (6-4) = 2(6) - 2(4)

• (2+4) + 6 = (4+2)+6

Determine which equation shows commutative property.

• 7 + 3 = 10

• 7 + 3 = 3 + 7

• 2 x 6 = 3 x 4

• 2(4-3) = 2(4) - 2(3)

Determine which equation shows commutative property.

• 7y + 8 + 10 y = 17y + 8

• 7y + 8 + 10 y = 7y + 10y + 8

• 7y + 8 + 10y = 8(7y + 10y)

Determine which equation shows distributive property.

• 8(10-2) = 8(10) - 8(2)

• 8(10-2) = 8(10) + 8(2)

• 8(10-2) = 8(10) x 8(2)

• 8(10-2) = (8x10)-2

Determine which equation shows distributive property.

• a(b+c) = ab + ac

• ab + ac = abc

• ab + c = ba + c

• a(b+c) = (a x b) + c
