(D) Generate equivalent expressions using the properties of operations: inverse, identity, commutative, associative, and distributive properties.
(Y7) Extend and apply the laws and properties of arithmetic to algebraic terms and expressions (ACMNA177)
6.EE.3 Apply the properties of operations to generate equivalent expressions. For example, apply the distributive property to the expression 3 (2 + x) to produce the equivalent expression 6 + 3x; apply the distributive property to the expression 24x + 18y to produce the equivalent expression 6 (4x + 3y); apply properties of operations to y + y + y to produce the equivalent expression 3y.
