Worksheet on Properties of Multiplication of
Rational Numbers

Practice the questions given in the worksheet on properties of multiplication of rational
numbers. The questions are based on different properties of multiplication of rational
numbers i.e. closure property, associative property, commutative property, existence
of multiplicative inverse property, existence of multiplicative identity property,
distributive property of multiplication over addition and multiplicative property of 0.
1. Multiply the rationals:
(i) -5/17 by 51/(-60)
(ii) -6/11 by -55/36
(iii) -8/25 by -5/16
(iv) 6/7 by -49/36
2. Verify each of the following:
(i) 4/17 (-7)/9 = (-7)/9 4/17
(ii) (-8)/11 1/5 = 1/5 (-8)/11
(iii) (-12)/5 7/(-36) = 7/-36 (-12)/5
(iv) -8 (-13)/12 = (-13)/12 (-8)
3. Verify each of the following:
(i) (3/5 12/13) 7/18 = 3/5 (12/13 7/8)
(ii) (-13)/24 {(-12)/5 35/36} = {(-13)/24 (-12)/5} 35/36
(iii) {(-9)/5 (-10)/3} 21/-4 = (-9)/5 {(-10)/3 21/-4}
4. Fill in the blanks:
(i) (-23)/17 18/35 = 18/35 (_____)
(ii) -38 (-7)/19 = (-7)/19 (_____)
(iii) {15/7 -21/10} (-5)/6 = (_____) {(-21)/10 (-5)/6}
(iv) (-12)/5 {4/15 25/-16} = {(-12)/5 (4/15) (_____)
5. Find the multiplicative inverse of:
(i) -11/-15

(ii) -5
(iii) 0/7
(iv) 2/-5
(v) (-1)/8
6. Verify the following rational numbers using the multiplication properties:
(i) 3/7 {5/6 + 12/13} = (3/7 5/6) + (3/7 12/13)
(ii) -15/4 (3/7 + (-12)/5) = (-15/4 3/7) + (-15/4 (-12)/5)
(iii) (-8/3 + -13/12) 5/6 = (-8/3 5/6) + (-13/12 5/6)
(iv) -16/7 {-8/9 + (-7)/6} = (-16/7 (-8)/9) + ((-16)/7 -7/6)
7. Name the property of multiplication illustrated by the following statements:
(i) -11/13 -17/5 = -17/5 -11/13
(ii) {(-2)/3 7/9} (-9)/5 = (-2)/3 {7/9 (-9)/5}
(iii) (-3)/4 {(-5)/6 + 7/8 = {(-3)/4 (-5)/6} + {(-3)/4 7/8}
(iv) (-16)/9 1 = 1 (-16)/9 = (-16)/9
(v) (-11)/15 15/-11 = 15/-11 (-11)/15 = 1
(vi) -7/5 0 = 0
