Properties of Multiplication

Properties of Multiplication:Multiplication (symbol "×") is the mathematical operation of scaling one number by another. It is one of the four basic operations in elementary arithmetic (the others being addition, subtraction and division).Let us now understand the properties of multiplication.Multiplication of Commutative property (a . b) = (b . a)

2. Multiplication of Associative property (a . b) c = a (b . c)
3. Multiplication of Distributive property a . (b + c) = (a . b) + (a . c)

4. Multiplication of Identity element a . 1 = a

5. Multiplication of Zero element a . 0 = a

6. Multiplication of Negation (-1 ) . a = - a and (-1) . (-1) = 1

7. Multiplication of Inverse element a . (1a) = 1.
