Which of the following shows the Commutative Property of Multiplication?(1 point)

Question

Responses

a×b=b×a
a times b equals b times a

a×(b×c)=(a×b)×c
a times left parenthesis b times c right parenthesis equals left parenthesis a times b right parenthesis times c

a×1=a
a times 1 equals a

a×(−1)=−a
a times left parenthesis negative 1 right parenthesis equals negative a

Answer 1

The Commutative Property of Multiplication states that changing the order of the factors does not change the product. This is represented by the equation:

a × b = b × a

Therefore, the correct responses that show the Commutative Property of Multiplication are:

• a × b = b × a
• a times b equals b times a

These two statements reflect the Commutative Property.
