To solve the question, we need to identify the property that allows us to rearrange the expression \( \frac{1}{3} \times (6 \times \frac{4}{5}) \) as \( \left(\frac{1}{3} \times 6\right) \times \frac{4}{5} \). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the expression**: We start with the expression \( \frac{1}{3} \times (6 \times \frac{4}{5}) \). 2. **Apply the associative property**: The associative property of multiplication states that when multiplying three or more numbers, the way in which the numbers are grouped does not change the product. In mathematical terms, this can be expressed as: \[ ...
