Properties of whole numbers...
- Closure Property...
Two whole numbers add up to give another whole number. This is the closure property of the whole numbers. It means that the whole numbers are closed under addition.
- Commutative Property....
This property of the whole numbers tells that the order of addition does not change the value of the sum. Let a and b are two whole numbers, then a + b = b + a.
- Associative Property...
When we multiply three or more whole numbers, the value of the product remains the same when they are grouped in any manner. The associative property of multiplication holds for whole numbers. Thus, if 'a', 'b', and 'c' are three whole numbers, then a × (b × c) = (a × b) × c = (a × c) × b.
