Explanation of Solution
Given:
Calculation:
Definition of identity property:
An identity element is which in a given mathematical system leaves unchanged any element by which it is added or subtracted, multiplied or divided.
Option A shows the associative property of multiplication.So,option A can be eliminated.
Option B shows the commutative property of multiplication.So,option B can be eliminated.
Option C shown associative property of addition.So, option C can be eliminated.
Option D shows the identity property defined above. Option D is example of identity property.
Hence option D is the solution.
