Question

What is another way to group the factors? (3x2)x5

Answer 1

3x(2x5) . Both of these will answer to 30. Hoped this helped !!

Answer 2

We are given expression:  (3×2)×5.

We can see we have multiplication sign there.

Therefore, we can apply associative property of multiplication.

The associative property of multiplication is :

(a × b) × c = a × ( b × c).

We just need to regroup the multiplications.

On applying associative property of multiplication in (3×2)×5 , we get

3×(2×5).

Therefore, 3×(2×5) is the another way to group the factor (3×2)×5.
