Question

Choose the correct option for the following statement.

The property allows you to compute $\frac{1}{3}\times (6\times \frac{4}{3})as(\frac{1}{3}\times 6)\times \frac{4}{3}$ is Associativity.

• A. The given statement is true.
• B. The given statement is false.
• C. Incomplete information
• D. None of these

Answer 1

The correct option is A The given statement is true.

For any element $a,b,c\in A$, associative property states that

$a\left(bc\right)=\left(ab\right)c$

Take $a=\frac{1}{3},b=6,c=\frac{4}{3}$, we get

$\frac{1}{3}\times (6\times \frac{4}{3})=(\frac{1}{3}\times 6)\times \frac{4}{3}$

Hence, the statement is true.
