# Definition Sets
1changing the grouping of numbers will not change the value. for example: (7 + 4) + 8 = 7 + (4 + 8) also works with multiplication23 sets
2states you can change the groupings of additions or multiplications16 sets
3(a + b) + c = a + (b + c)7 sets
4changing the grouping does not change their sum or product6 sets
5(a+b)+c=a+(b+c)5 sets
6(a + b) + c = a + (b + c), (ab)c = a(bc)5 sets
7grouping can change4 sets
8a+(b+c)=(a+b)+c4 sets
9a(bc)=(ab)c, the grouping or adding of adding or multiplying numbers does not change the answer.3 sets
10(a+b)+c=a+(b+c), or (ab)c=a(bc)2 sets
11the grouping of numbers are changed(holds true for adding and multiplying)2 sets
12you can change the groupings of additions and multiplications2 sets
13you can group or regroup numbers in a problem that is all adding or multipyling.2 sets
14changing how the addends are grouped does not change the sum2 sets
15states that you can change the groupings of additions or multiplications2 sets
16regrouping the numbers does not effect the sum or product. (property)2 sets
17(a+b)+x=a+(b+x)2 sets
18( a+b )+c = a+(b+c) or (ab)c= a(bc)2 sets
19allows addends or factors to be grouped and computed in different arrangements2 sets
20a property of real numbers that states that the sum or product of a set of numbers is the same, regardless of how the numbers are grouped2 sets
212(3x)=(2*3)2 sets
22allows to group and regroup numbers in a multiplication or addition problem2 sets
23a + (b+c)=(a+b) + c2 sets
24the way in which numbers are grouped when added or multiplied does not change the sum or product2 sets
25it doesnt matter the grouping of the paranthesis (mult. add)1 set
26(5+3)+7=5+(3+7) or (5*3)7=5(3*7)1 set
27the property says 3 more numbers, their sum is always the same no matter what1 set
283+(4+5)=(3+4)+51 set
29as long as the operations are the same, you can do the problem in whatever order you want.1 set
30rearranging, not changing, the order. (2+3)+4=2+(3+4)1 set
31addition:(x+y)+z=x+(y+z), multiplication: (xy)z=x(yz)1 set
32ex) (a+b)+c=a+(b+c)1 set
332 + (3+5) = (2+3) + 5 (closed under addition and multiplication)1 set
34it is the property that allows you to regroup numbers when adding or multiplying the terms without changing the outcome. (a + b) + c = a + (b + c)1 set
35regrouping does not change the product1 set
36the way you group three or more numbers when adding or multiplying does not change the answer1 set
37you can change the grouping of the number and still get the same answer1 set
38you can change the grouping of the numbers and still get the same answer1 set
39the way three numbers are grouped does not chage their products when adding/mulitiplying1 set
403+(5+2)=(3+5)+21 set
