Apply the Associative Property of Multiplication to rewrite the expression p⋅(q⋅r)

Answer 1

The Associative Property of Multiplication states that the way in which numbers are grouped in a multiplication expression does not change the product. In mathematical terms, this means that \( a \cdot (b \cdot c) = (a \cdot b) \cdot c \).

For the expression \( p \cdot (q \cdot r) \), we can rewrite it using the Associative Property as follows:

\[ (p \cdot q) \cdot r \]

Thus, \( p \cdot (q \cdot r) \) can be rewritten as \( (p \cdot q) \cdot r \).
