Question

identify the property of multiplication of rational numbers used in the following statement :-. 1/3 × ( 7/8 × 1/2 ) = ( 1/3 × 7/8 ) × 1/2​

Answer 1

Answer:

1268585858470*%25-38

Answer 2

Answer:

•Associative property

(a+b)+c=a+(b+c)

or (a×b)×c=a×(b×c)

•Distributive property

a×(b+c)=a×b+a×c

•Commutative property

a+b=b+a

or a×b=b×a

so the given equation follows:

a×(b+c)=a×b+a×c

$= a \: = \frac{ - 3}{2}$

$= b = \frac{5}{4}$

$= c = \frac{ - 7}{6}$
