the kids rocks

The property of real numbers illustrated by the equation 2·(8·7)=(2·8)·7 is the associativity property of multiplication.

To understand this property, let's break it down:

1. In the equation, we start with 2·(8·7). This means we first multiply 8 and 7 together, obtaining 56.
Then, we multiply 2 by the result (56), which gives us the value of 112.

2. On the other hand, in the equation (2·8)·7, we start by multiplying 2 and 8 together, which yields 16.
Then, we multiply the result (16) by 7, giving us the same value of 112.

Therefore, regardless of the order in which we perform the multiplications, we end up with the same final result. This property is known as the associativity property of multiplication.

In contrast, the distributive property would involve an equation like 2·(8+7) = 2·8 + 2·7, where we distribute the multiplication of 2 to the terms inside the parentheses. The commutative property of multiplication refers to the ability to swap the order of the factors in a multiplication equation without affecting the result. The associative property of addition relates to grouping of numbers in an addition equation and states that the grouping does not affect the sum.

well, it looks associative

So, are you adding or multiplying?

By the way, that's commutative, not communicative. Pay atten--, I say, pay attention, boy...
