Question

Verify a x ( b x c) = ( a x b ) x c , if a = ½ , y = -1/3 and z = ¼. Also mention the name of
property.

Answer 1

Answer:

name of property : associative property of multiplication

Step-by-step explanation:

LHS = a x ( b x c)

= 1/2 x (-1/3 x 1/4)

= 1/2 x -1/12 = -1/24

RHS = ( a x b ) x c

= (1/2 x -1/3) x 1/4

= -1/6 x 1/4 = -1/24

LHS = RHS

Hence verified
