Answer:
There are 12 pentapods and 8 Tripods, which in total add up to 84 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that both the Tripods and the Pentapods have, at least, 3 feet (the Pentapods have 5), and that in total between both groups they add 20 heads and 84 feet, the following logical reasoning can be made:
If there are 20 heads, there are 20 Martians in all. Each of them has, at least, 3 feet, with which in principle the 20 Martians would add up to a total of 60 feet (20 x 3). Therefore, there is a surplus of 24 feet (84 - 60).
If the Pentapods have 2 feet more than the Tripods, the number of Pentapods in the total Martians is determined by that difference. Thus, if there are 24 feet left, there are 12 Pentapods (24/2).
Therefore, in the group of Martians there are 12 pentapods (12 x 5 = 60) and 8 Tripods (8 x 3 = 24), which in total add up to 84 feet (60 + 24).

Answer:
Associative Property of Multiplication
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given three numbers-a,b,c.
We are given the property (ab)c = a(bc)
This implies that on the left hand side we first multiply a and b and then multiply the result by c. On the right side of the equation, we first multiply b and c and multiply a with the product of b and c.
As per the given property, the result in both the cases is the same.
This signifies the associative property of multiplication where the result is independent of the order of operation.
