Question

Write an equivalent expression to the given expression using the Associative Property of Multiplication. (a ⋅ b) ⋅ c (1 point) Responses c(a ⋅ b) c(a ⋅ b) (a + b ) + c ( a + b ) + c a ⋅ (b ⋅ c ) a ⋅ ( b ⋅ c ) (b - a ) - c

Answer 1

Using the Associative Property of Multiplication, we can rearrange the parentheses in the expression \((a \cdot b) \cdot c\). According to this property, the way in which we group factors in multiplication does not change the product.

The equivalent expression would be:

**a ⋅ (b ⋅ c)**

So the correct response is:

**a ⋅ (b ⋅ c)**
