Question

5 * n = 25
n * 5 = 25 (some math rules let you move values around in an equation)
(n * 5) ÷ 5 = 25 ÷ 5 (you can divide both sides of an equation by the same value)
n * (5 ÷ 5) = 25 ÷ 5 (when using multiplication and division, you can regroup values)
n * 1 = 5 (a number divided by itself is equal to one)
n = 5 (any value multiplied by one is equal to that value) .... is it correct

Answer 1

?

Answer 2

1. 5 * n = n * 5 I believe is the commutative property of multiplication.

2. Not too sure about the 5/5 business, did you learn that in class?

3. (n / 5 ) * 5 = n (5*5) is the associative property of mult.

4. n * 1 I believe is called the identity property, but not too sure.

looks good.
