Term Definition
order of numbers can change (addition and multiplication) Commutative property
grouping of numbers can change (addition and multiplication) associative property
commutative property a+b = b+a
associative property (a+b)+c = a+(b+c)
when added to a number, the number stays the same (0) additive identity
additive identity a+0 = a
when multiplied by a number, the number stays the same (1) multiplicative identity
multiplicative identity a(1)= a
when added to a number, sum = 0 additive inverse
additive inverse 2+(-2)= 0
when multiplied by a number, product = 1 multiplicative inverse
multiplicative inverse a(1/a)=1
any number multiplied by 0 = 0 multiplication property of zero
multiplication property of zero a(0)=0
distributive property a(b+c) = ab + ac
