Associative and Commutative Property

3 + (12 + 8) = 3 + (8 + 12) 

• Associative Addition 

• Associative Multiplication 

• Commutative Addition 

• Commutative Multiplication 

The way in which three or more terms are grouped do not change the sum!

• commutative property

• associative property

Identify the property 3 + 2 = 2 + 3

• associative property

• commutative property

• additive inverse property

Identify the property 3 x (2 x 5) = 30

(3 x 2) x 5 = 30

• associative property

• commutative property

• multiplication of zero

Check each box that is the associative property!

• 5 X (5 x 2) = 5 x (5 x 2 )

• 3 + 2 = 2 + 3

• 6 + -6 = 0

• -1 + (3 + 5) = (-1 + 3) +5

6 X 59 = 59 x 6, is the commutative property! Is this True or False?

• True

• False

Identify the associative property

• 345 + 23 = 23 + 345

• 8( 3 x 4)

• 345 + (23 + 2) = (345 + 23 ) + 2

• 1/2 x 2/1= 1

No matter what order you add or multiply the numbers, the answer is the same!

Check each box that is the commutative property!

• 4+2 = 2+4

• 4 + (2 + 3) = (4 + 2) + 3

• 8 x 5 = 5 x 8

• 8 x 0 = 0
