Name the property under multiplication used in each of the following: (i) a × 1 = 1 × a = a (ii) a × b = b × a (iii) a × 29b = 1
Solution:
i) Commutative property As it follows: A × B = B × A ii) Commutative property As it follows: A × B = B × A iii) Multiplicative inverse As it follows: A × (1/A) = 1
