write an equivalent expression to (a✖️b)✖️c using the associative property of multiplication

Answer 1

Using the associative property of multiplication, which states that the grouping of factors does not change the product, we can rewrite the expression \((a \times b) \times c\) as:

\[ a \times (b \times c) \]

So, the equivalent expression is \(a \times (b \times c)\).
