  • 2. 

    The sum of two different whole numbers is always greater than either addend.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The statement is true because when adding two different whole numbers, the sum will always be greater than either of the two numbers. This is because when adding two numbers, the sum is essentially combining the quantities of both numbers, resulting in a larger value.

  • 3. 

    Division of whole numbers is commutative.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The division of whole numbers is not commutative. This means that the order in which the numbers are divided affects the result. For example, if we divide 10 by 2, we get 5. However, if we divide 2 by 10, we get 0.2. This shows that the division operation is not commutative for whole numbers.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    Subtraction of whole numbers is associative.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Subtraction of whole numbers is not associative. Associativity means that the grouping of numbers does not affect the result. However, in subtraction, changing the grouping of numbers will result in different answers. For example, (5 - 3) - 2 is not equal to 5 - (3 - 2). Therefore, the statement is false.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    5 (1) = 1 (5) is an example of associative property.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The given statement, 5 (1) = 1 (5), is not an example of the associative property. The associative property states that the grouping of numbers does not affect the result of the operation. In this case, the numbers are being multiplied, and switching the order of the numbers does affect the result. Therefore, the given statement does not demonstrate the associative property.
