Match the operations and the names of the properties by placing the correct number to the left of the letters A–E. (Not all properties on the right will
necessarily be used; some may be used more than once.)
___A) –3  (2 + 5) = –3  (5 + 2)
___B) 3  (2 + 5) = (3  2) + (3 5)
___C) 4 + (–3 + –1) + 2 = (4 + –3) +( –1 + 2)
___D) 5 + ( 8 + 0) = 5 + 8
___E) -4  1 = -4
___F) 6 + (4 + –4) = 6 + 0
___G) 32  23  1
___H) 3  (5 0) = (5  0)  3
