commutative property
multiplicative identity
distributive property

Answer 1

a(b · c) = (a · b)c

answer
associative property

Answer 2

This is the associative property.

Explanation:

Given : a(b · c) = (a · b)c

To find : Which of the following properties is a(b · c) = (a · b)c an example of.

Solution : We have given a(b · c) = (a · b)c

Associative property :

A(B.C)= (A.B).C

Example : 2 ( 3.4)= (2.3).4 = 24.

Therefore, This is the associative property.
