Question
18 ÷ 1 = 18
which property does this demonstrate?
identity property
associative property
commutative property
The identity property of division states that any number divided by 1 equals the number itself. The equation \(18\div1 = 18\) shows this, as dividing 18 by 1 gives 18. The associative property involves grouping in operations (e.g., \((a\div b)\div c=a\div(b\div c)\) which is not the case here), and the commutative property involves changing the order of operands (e.g., \(a\div b
eq b\div a\) generally, so it's not commutative). So this demonstrates the Identity Property.
