Distributive Property of Multiplication over Addition

Multiplying a sum by a number is the same as multiplying

each addend by the number and then adding the

products.

6 x (12 + 9) = (6 x 12) + (6 x 9)

Zero Property

The product of any factor and 0 equals 0.

65 x 0 = 0

Commutative Property

The order of the factors does not change a product.

6 x 8 = 8 x 6

Associative Property

The way factors are grouped does not change a

product.

(11 x 3) x 4 = 11 x (3 x 4)

Identity Property

The product of any factor and 1 equals the factor.

56 x 1 = 56

Distributive Property of Multiplication over Subtraction

To multiply a difference of two numbers by a third

number, you can multiply the first two numbers by

the third, and then find the difference of the

products.

7 x (23 ­ 9) = (7 x 23) ­ (7 x 9)
