Give an example that illustrates each property: Associative Property of Multiplication Example: $2(3\times4)=(2\times3)\times4$

Give an example that illustrates each property: Associative Property of Multiplication Example: $2(3\times4)=(2\times3)\times4$ $2(3\times4)=2\times12$ =$24(2\times3)\times4$ = $6\times4$ =$24$ The equation is true So changing the group of orders does not change the product Answer: $2(3\times4)=(2\times3)\times4$
