The associative property of multiplication states that the way in which numbers are grouped in a multiplication problem does not change the product. This means you can regroup the numbers in a multiplication expression.
For the expression \((3 \times 4) \times 8\), you can use the associative property to change the grouping.
One equivalent expression would be:
\(3 \times (4 \times 8)\)
Both \((3 \times 4) \times 8\) and \(3 \times (4 \times 8)\) yield the same result.
