Q. Which property of multiplication is shown?(h⋅j)⋅k=h⋅(j⋅k)Choices:(A) distributive(B) identity(C) commutative(D) associative
Identify Property of Multiplication: Analyze the equation to identify the property of multiplication.In the equation (h⋅j)⋅k=h⋅(j⋅k), the placement of parentheses changes, but the order of multiplication remains the same. This indicates a property where the grouping of factors does not affect the product.
Match with Correct Choice: Match the observed property with the correct choice.The Associative Property of Multiplication states that you can add or multiply regardless of how the numbers are grouped. By regrouping, we mean the numbers are associated differently. This property is shown as (a⋅b)⋅c=a⋅(b⋅c).
