Commutative Properties • Changing the order of the numbers in addition or multiplication will not change the result. • Commutative Property of Addition states: 2 + 3 = 3 + 2 or a + b = b + a. • Commutative Property of Multiplication states: 4 • 5 = 5 • 4 or ab = ba.
Associative Properties • Changing the grouping of the numbers in addition or multiplication will not change the result. • Associative Property of Addition states: 3 + (4 + 5)= (3 + 4)+ 5 or a + (b + c)= (a + b)+ c • Associative Property of Multiplication states: (2 • 3) • 4 = 2 • (3 • 4) or (ab)c = a(bc)
Distributive Property • Multiplication distributes over addition.
Additive Identity Property • There exists a unique number 0 such that zero preserves identities under addition. a + 0 = a and 0 + a = a • In other words adding zero to a number does not change its value.
Multiplicative Identity Property • There exists a unique number 1 such that the number 1 preserves identities under multiplication. a∙ 1 = a and 1 ∙a = a • In other words multiplying a number by 1 does not change the value of the number.
Additive Inverse Property • For each real number a there exists a unique real number –a such that their sum is zero. a + (-a) = 0 • In other words opposites add to zero.
Multiplicative Inverse Property • For each real number a there exists a unique real number such that their product is 1.
