Algebra Properties

QuestionAnswer
Additive Identity When you add 0, Example: 6+0=6
Multiplicative Identity When you Multiply by 1, Example: 5(1)= 5
Multiplicative property of zero When you Multiply by 0. Example: 9(0)= 0
Multiplicative Inverse When you multiply fractions and they equal 1, (reciprocal being multiplied =1) Example: (5/3)(3/5)=1
Reflexive When both things on each side of the equal sign are EXACTLY the SAME. Example: 2+3 = 2+3
Substitution When math is done to simplify a math expression. Example: 2(6+3) = 2(9)
Synmmetric IF the 1st is equal to the 2nd THEN the 2nd is equal to the 1st. Example: IF 6+3 = 9 THEN 9 = 6+3
Transitive If the 1st is equal to the 2nd AND the 2nd is equal to the 3rd THEN the 1st is equal to the 3rd. Example: IF 4+2=6, AND 6=2(3), THEN 4+2=2(3)
Commutative Property When the order that add or multiply does not change answer. Hint Stuff changes Order Examples: 2+3 = 3+2, OR 5(4) = 4(5) OR (4+5)+2 = (5+4)+2
Associative Property When the way numbers are grouped does not change the sum or product. Hint (braces) change places Examples: (2+3)+4 = 2+(3+4) OR (4*5)*2 = 4*(5*2)
Distributive Property When you multiply each part of the stuff in the parenthesis by what is on out side of parenthesis. Examples: 2(3+4) = 2(3) +2(4) = 6 + 8 = 14 OR 6(x+3) = 6(x) +6(3) = 6x + 18
Additive Inverse When two numbers are add or subtracted and they equal zero, Example: 5+(-5)=0, OR 6-6=0

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
