Question

Multiple choice question: Which equation demonstrates the identity property of multiplication?

a* 1 = a
a* 2 = 2a
a* 0 = 0
a* (1/a) = 1

Answer 1

It is a*1=a

Explanation:

This is because the identity property of multiplication states:

The product of 1 and any number is that number.

So therefore this equation represents the property

where a number A times 1 equals the number itself A.

so a*1=a is the correct answer
