Question

Which of the following satisfy the commutative property of integers under multiplication?

• A. $2\times (-4+3)=(2\times -4)+(2\times 3)$
• B. $(-6)\times (-8)=(-8)\times (-6)=48$
• C. $(-8)+6+(-7)=6+(-7)+(-8)$
• D. $4\times (-6)\times (-10)=(-6)\times (-10)\times 4=(-10)\times (-6)\times$
  

Answer 1

Answer: (B), (D)

The correct options are
B $(-6)\times (-8)=(-8)\times (-6)=48$
D $4\times (-6)\times (-10)=(-6)\times (-10)\times 4=(-10)\times (-6)\times$


According to the commutative property , when we multiply two or more integers, even if the order changes the product will be same.
For any integers a,b and c

a x b x c= c x b x a = a x c x b = c x a x b = b x c x a = b x a x c
