Which equation shows the identity Property of Multiplication ?A. a + a + a = 3 x aB. ax 1C. a(b + c) = ab + acD. (a + b) + 9 = a + (9 + b)

Answer:a [tex]\times[/tex] 1 is the equation which shows identity property of multiplication.Solution:Need to identify expression from given four options which shows identity property of multiplication.Identity property of multiplication says that number should not be change after multiplication means identity of number must be intact after multiplication.This is only possible if any number is multiplied by 1.That is if a is the number than a [tex]\times[/tex] 1 = a describes identity property of multiplication.Hence option b that is a [tex]\times[/tex] 1 is the expression which shows identity property of multiplication.
