Question

Name the property the equation illustrates. 6(-6/2)=(-6/2)6

a. Inverse Property of Multiplication

b. Commutative Property of Multiplication

c. Associative Property of Addition

d. Commutative Property of Addition

Answer 1

Correct option is:

b. Commutative Property of Multiplication

Explanation:

Commutative property of multiplication says that:

If a and b are two elements then,

ab=ba

Here, we are given that:

6(-6/2)=(-6/2)6

a=6 and b=(-6/2) such that ab=ba

Hence, property illustrated in the equation 6(-6/2)=(-6/2)6 is:

Commutative Property of Multiplication
