Solution Steps

To solve this problem, we need to identify the properties of real numbers that justify each given equation. Here are the high-level ideas for each:

  1. Equation: \(5 \cdot \frac{1}{5} = 1\)
    Property: This is the Multiplicative Inverse Property, which states that any number multiplied by its reciprocal equals 1.

  2. Equation: \(0 + 8 = 8\)
    Property: This is the Identity Property of Addition, which states that any number plus zero equals the number itself.

  3. Equation: \(7 \cdot (d + 3) = 7 \cdot d + 7 \cdot 3\)
    Property: This is the Distributive Property, which states that multiplying a number by a sum is the same as doing each multiplication separately.

  4. Equation: \(c \cdot 6 = 6 \cdot c\)
    Property: This is the Commutative Property of Multiplication, which states that the order of factors can be changed without affecting the product.

Step 1: Identify the Property for \(5 \cdot \frac{1}{5} = 1\)

The equation \(5 \cdot \frac{1}{5} = 1\) demonstrates the property that any number multiplied by its reciprocal equals 1. This is known as the Multiplicative Inverse Property.

Step 2: Identify the Property for \(0 + 8 = 8\)

The equation \(0 + 8 = 8\) illustrates that adding zero to any number does not change the value of that number. This is referred to as the Identity Property of Addition.

Step 3: Identify the Property for \(7 \cdot (d + 3) = 7 \cdot d + 7 \cdot 3\)

The equation \(7 \cdot (d + 3) = 7 \cdot d + 7 \cdot 3\) shows that multiplying a number by a sum can be distributed across the terms in the sum. This is known as the Distributive Property.

Final Answer

The properties for the equations are as follows:

  1. For \(5 \cdot \frac{1}{5} = 1\): \(\text{Multiplicative Inverse Property}\)
  2. For \(0 + 8 = 8\): \(\text{Identity Property of Addition}\)
  3. For \(7 \cdot (d + 3) = 7 \cdot d + 7 \cdot 3\): \(\text{Distributive Property}\)

Thus, the answers are:

  • \( \boxed{\text{Multiplicative Inverse Property}} \)
  • \( \boxed{\text{Identity Property of Addition}} \)
  • \( \boxed{\text{Distributive Property}} \)
