Properties of Real Numbers
COMMUTATIVE PROPERTY
Commutative Property of Addition
When adding two numbers, the order of the numbers does not matter.
Examples:
a + b = b + a
2 + 3 = 3 + 2
(-5) + 4 = 4 + (-5)
Commutative Property of Multiplication
When multiplying two numbers, the order of the numbers does not matter.
Examples:
a • b = b • a
2 • 3 = 3 • 2
(-3) • 24 = 24 • (-3)
ASSOCIATIVE PROPERTY
Associative Property of AdditionWhen three numbers are added, it makes no difference which two numbers are added first.
Examples:
a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c
2 + (3 + 5) = (2 + 3) + 5
(4 + 2) + 6 = 4 + (2 + 6)
Associative Property of Multiplication
When three numbers are multiplied, it makes no difference which two numbers are multiplied first.
Examples:
a(bc) = (ab)c
2 • (3 • 5) = (2 • 3) • 5
(4 • 2) • 6 = 4 • (2 • 6)
DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY
Distributive Property
Multiplication distributes over addition.
Examples:
a(b + c) = ab + ac
2 (3 + 5) = (2 • 3) + (2 • 5)
(4 + 2) • 6 = (4 • 6) + (2 • 6)
IDENTITY PROPERTY
Additive Identity Property
The additive identity property states that if 0 is added to a number, the result is that number.
Example:
a + 0 = a
3 + 0 = 0 + 3 = 3
Multiplicative Identity Property
The multiplicative identity property states that if a number is multiplied by a 1, the result is that number.
Example:
a • 1= a
3 • 1= 3
INVERSE OPERATIONS PROPERTY
Inverse Operations Property
An operation that reverses the effect of another operation.
Examples: addition and subtraction
multiplication and division
squares and square roots
Additive Inverse Property
The additive inverse property states that opposites add to zero.
Examples:
k + (- k) = 0
7 + (-7) = 0
4x – 8 = 0
+ 8 = +8
Multiplicative Inverse Property
The multiplicative inverse property states that reciprocals multiply to 1.

EQUALITY PROPERTY
Equality PropertyFor all operations: The property that states that if you perform an operation with the same number to both sides of an equation, the sides remain equal (i.e., the equation continues to be true.)
2 Most Common:
Multiplicative Property of Equality
Additive Property of Equality
Multiplicative Property of Equality
The two sides of an equation remain equal if they are multiplied by the same number. That is: for any real numbers a, b, and c, if a = b, then ac = bc.
x = y; and x • 8 = y • 8
m=20 ; and m • 2 = 20 • 2
Additive Property of Equality• Additive Property of Equality: The two
sides of an equation remain equal if they are increased by the same number.
• That is: for any real numbers a, b, and c, if a = b, then a + c = b + c.
x = y; and x + 6 = y + 6
m=15 ; and m + 5 = 15 + 5
ZERO PROPERTY OF MULTIPLICATION
Zero Property of MultiplicationThe product of 0 and any number results in 0.That is, for any real number a, a × 0 = 0.
Examples:
0 • (-4) = 0
m • 0 = 0
(27x2y4) • 0 = 0
MULTIPLICATION PROPERTY OF NEGATIVE ONE
-1
Multiplication Property of Negative One
When you multiply a number by −1 it becomes the opposite of what you multiplied by −1.
Examples:
−1 • 5= −5
m • (− 1) = (− m)
-(7 – 3x) = -7 + 3x

Combine Like Terms
Like terms are monomials that are of the same category. That is they are both constants, or they contain the same variables raised to the same powers. They can be combined to form a single term or used to simplify expressions & equations.
Combine Like TermsCombine like terms to simplify the expression.
10 + 4x3 + 7x4 – x2 + 5x3 +4x2 – 2x4 – 6
Hint: Remember to only combine terms that are all from the same number family (constants with constants, x2 with other
x2, x3 with x3, and x4 with x4)

Opposites
Two real numbers that are the same distance from the origin of the real number line are opposites of each other.
Examples of opposites:
2 and -2 -100 and 100 and 15 15
Reciprocals
Two numbers whose product is 1 are reciprocals of each other.
Examples of Reciprocals:

Least Common Denominator
The least common denominator (LCD) is the smallest number divisible by all the denominators.
Example: The LCD of is 12 because 12 is the smallest number into which 3 and 4 will both divide.

To add two fractions you must first find the LCD. In the problem below the LCD is 12. Then rewrite the two addends as equivalent expressions with the LCD. Then add the numerators and keep the denominator.
