Real Number Properties In this assignment we were asked to solve three expressions using the properties of real numbers in order to do so. Each of the real number properties are essential in solving algebraic expressions. Although you may not need to use all of them in the same expression to solve you will need to use at least one. In this paper I will demonstrate the use of the properties and show the steps needed to solve each part of an expression. Understanding the properties of algebra
