Theorem mulsassd

Description: Associative law for surreal multiplication. Part of theorem 7 of Conway p. 19. (Contributed by Scott Fenton, 10-Mar-2025)

Ref Expression
Hypotheses mulsassd.1 ⊢ ( 𝜑 → 𝐴 ∈ No )
mulsassd.2 ⊢ ( 𝜑 → 𝐵 ∈ No )
mulsassd.3 ⊢ ( 𝜑 → 𝐶 ∈ No )
Assertion mulsassd ( 𝜑 → ( ( 𝐴 ·s 𝐵 ) ·s 𝐶 ) = ( 𝐴 ·s ( 𝐵 ·s 𝐶 ) ) )

Proof
