A. To simplify the expression (4)(0.25)(3.7), we need to apply the property of multiplication which states that the order of multiplication does not matter. We can rearrange the factors and multiply them in any order we choose.

So, let's simplify the expression step by step:

1. Start with (4)(0.25)(3.7).
2. Since multiplication is associative, we can group the factors in any way. Let's group (4) and (0.25) first: ((4)(0.25))(3.7).

The property used here is the associative property of multiplication.

B. To simplify the expression (1)(3.7), we need to apply the property of multiplicative identity, which states that the product of any number and 1 is that number itself.

So, let's simplify the expression:

1. Start with (1)(3.7).
2. Apply the multiplicative identity property, which means we multiply (3.7) by 1: 3.7.

The property used here is the multiplicative identity property.

C. The expression 3.7 is already simplified and does not require any additional steps.
