Properties of Multiplication
• Distributive
• Associative
• Commutative
• Identify
• Zero

15. Distributive Property of Multiplication over Addition
Multiplying a sum by a number is the same as multiplying
each addend by the number and then adding the
products.
6 x (12 + 9) = (6 x 12) + (6 x 9)

16. Zero Property
The product of any factor and 0 equals 0.
65 x 0 = 0

17. Commutative Property
The order of the factors does not change a product.
6 x 8 = 8 x 6

18. Associative Property
The way factors are grouped does not change a
product.
(11 x 3) x 4 = 11 x (3 x 4)

19. Identity Property
The product of any factor and 1 equals the factor.
56 x 1 = 56

20. Distributive Property of Multiplication over Subtraction
To multiply a difference of two numbers by a third
number, you can multiply the first two numbers by
the third, and then find the difference of the
products.
7 x (23 ­ 9) = (7 x 23) ­ (7 x 9)
