ASSOCIATIVE PROPERTY OF MULTIPLICATION // 3RD GRADE COMMON CORE MATH

Hi Yall!
Today's video I am introducing Associative Property of Multiplication.

Associative Property is a rule in Multiplication that basically states when you are multiplying 3 or more factors (numbers), the order in which you group the factors (numbers) will not change the product (answer).

For example:
4x2x3 can be written and solved
(4x2)x3 or 4x(2x3)
or you can even use Commutative property to allow the factors to switch places (because the are all multiplying by each other)
2x(4x3)

In prior videos I introduced Distributive Property, if you missed that video you can check that out here:

And if you just want to check out basic multiplication strategies, check out this video!

Hope this helps,
Keep on Bloomin!
