5/6(6/5m)?? I don't understand what you're trying to comprehend.

Answer 2

\[\LARGE \frac{5}{6}\left(\frac{6}{5}m\right)\]
I don't know what you mean, but according to your post, this is what you've typed.

Answer 5

yes kreshnik, that is how the problem is written , suppossed to rewrite it using associative property of addition or multiplication

Answer 6

can you do it ? :)

Answer 7

\[a + b + c = (a + b) + c = a + (b + c)\]

Answer 8

having a hard time understanding the method

Answer 9

@birdkeeper It's somewhat like the commutative property. You need not worry about the order in multiplication and addition. In a,b,c, you can add/multiply any two numbers first and continue.

Answer 10

Example:
\[\LARGE \frac{5}{2}\left({3\over 7}x\right)\]
\[\LARGE \left(\frac{5}{2}\cdot {3\over 7}\right) x\]

Answer 11

Let's have a real life numeral example:
You have 3 apples. I give you 4 bananas. What do you have in total? Now I give you 2 more apples. Now, what number of fruits do you have in total?

Another one, You have 3 apples. I give you 2 apples. What do you have? Now I give you 4 bananas. What do you have now?

This one concentrates on the associative property.

\[(3 + 4) + 2 = (3 + 2) + 4 = 9\]

Answer 12
