A quick google search led me to http://www.harcourtschool.com/glossary/math_advantage/definitions/associative_mul7.html which says.... [h=1]Associative Property of Multiplication[/h]The property which states that for all real numbers a, b, and c, their product is always the same, regardless of their grouping: (a . b) . c = a . (b . c) Example: (5 . 6) . 7 = 5 . (6 . 7) Does that help?
