Which property is illustrated by the equation 4/7 (-13) = -13 (4/7)

Question

A.
Inverse
B.
Identity
C.
Associative
D.
Commutative
E.
Distributive

Answer 1

The equation \( \frac{4}{7} \times (-13) = -13 \times \frac{4}{7} \) illustrates the Commutative Property.

The Commutative Property states that the order in which two numbers are multiplied does not change the product. In this case, the numbers are \( \frac{4}{7} \) and \( -13 \).

So, the correct answer is:

D. Commutative
