Find the exact product of 5 x 20 x 8.
A) 800 (Correct Answer)
B) 80
C) 560
D) 900
Explanation:
Using the Associative (Grouping) Property of Multiplication, the three factors can be grouped in any way. One possible way would be to multiply the 5 and the 20 first. (5 x 20 = 100) Then that result can be multiplied by the third factor (8). The final product is 800.
