Example Questions

Example Question #421 : Operations And Properties

What property can be applied to the following expression?

$\frac{x}{\sqrt{5}} \times 1 = \frac{x}{\sqrt{5}}$

Possible Answers:

Multiplicative Identity

Commutative of Addition

Multiplicative Inverse

Distributive Law

Associative of Multiplication

Correct answer:

Multiplicative Identity

Explanation:

The rule for Multiplicative Identity Property is $a \times 1 = a$

Expression given in the question is: $\frac{x}{\sqrt{5}} \times 1 = \frac{x}{\sqrt{5}}$

Hence the property is Multiplicative Identity.

Example Question #2 : Multiplicative Identity Property

Which of the following demonstrates the multiplicative inverse property?

Possible Answers:

$7\times1=7$

$3\times2=2\times3$

$\frac{1}{4}\times 4=1$

$(4\times2)\times3=4\times(2\times3)$

Correct answer:

$\frac{1}{4}\times 4=1$

Explanation:

The multiplicative inverse property states that for some value ,

$n\times \frac{1}{n}=1$ .

Therefore, the statement demonstrating the multiplicative inverse property is

$\frac{1}{4}\times4=1$ .

Example Question #3 : Multiplicative Identity Property

Which of the following statements demonstrates the identity property of multiplication?

Possible Answers:

$\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{3}{2} = 1$

None of the examples in the other responses demonstrates the identity property of multiplication.

$\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{5}{7} = \frac{5}{7} \times \frac{2}{3}$

$\frac{2}{3} \times 1 = \frac{2}{3}$

$\left (\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{5}{7} \right ) \times \frac{6}{11} = \frac{2}{3} \times\left ( \frac{5}{7} \times \frac{6}{11} \right )$

Correct answer:

$\frac{2}{3} \times 1 = \frac{2}{3}$

Explanation:

The identity property of multiplication states that there is a number 1, called the multiplicative identity, that can be multiplied by any number to obtain that number. Of the four statements,

$\frac{2}{3} \times 1 = \frac{2}{3}$

demonstrates this property.

Example Question #1 : Multiplicative Identity Property

Which property does the equation below represent?

$\frac{8}{21} * 1 = \frac{8}{21}$

Possible Answers:

Distributive Property

Multiplicative Identity Property

Communitive Property of Multiplication

Associative Property of Multiplication

Zero Property of Multiplication

Correct answer:

Multiplicative Identity Property

Explanation:

When something is multiplied by the number one it remains the same number. Therefore when multiplying by one it creates its own identity.

Example Question #5 : Multiplicative Identity Property

Which equation shows an example of the multiplicative identity property?

Possible Answers:

2 * 4 * 6 =

(7 * 5) * 2 =

64r * 1 =

32 * 0 =

8 + (6 + 12) =

Correct answer:

64r * 1 =

Explanation:

The multiplicative identity property means that when something is multiplied by 1 then it will remain the same as the other number.

64r * 1 = 64r

Example Question #6 : Multiplicative Identity Property

Which of the following displays the multiplicative identity property?

Possible Answers:

$a \cdot 0 = 0$

$a \cdot b = b \cdot a$

$a \cdot b = ab$

$a \cdot 1 = a$

$a (b \cdot c) = (a \cdot b) \cdot (a \cdot c)$

Correct answer:

$a \cdot 1 = a$

Explanation:

The multiplicative identity property states that when you multiply a number by 1, the answer is the original number.

Therefore,

$a \cdot 1 = a$

displays the multiplicative identity property.
