Question

Which expression correctly shows the Commutative property?
8 + 14 + 22 + 9 = (8 + 14) + (22 + 9)
8 + 14 + 22 + 9 = 8 + (14 + 22) + 9
8 + 14 + 22 + 9 = 53
8 + 14 + 22 + 9 = 8 + 22 + 14 + 9

Answer 1

commutative just means the order has changed
for example a+b=b+a is what the commutative property over addition looks like

Answer 2

what is the only choice where the order has changed

Answer 3

the 1st one

Answer 4

lets think about it
what does order mean exactly
like what i mean by order is that the terms get switched around
and not all the terms have to be switched around but at least some do
in order for it be consider commutative property

Answer 5

example of commutative property being applied are:
8+7+5=7+8+5

Answer 6

a+b+c=b+a+c <--commutative property has been applied
the order of the terms has changed

Answer 7

a+b+c=a+c+b
see the second term has become the new third term
and the third term has become the new 2nd term

Answer 8

the 2nd one

Answer 9

order has not changed there

Answer 10

8 + 14 + 22 + 9 = 8 + 22 + 14 + 9


look at this one
this is exactly what I have been saying
the 14 and 22 have switched places
the order has been changed here
has it not?

Answer 11

yes

Answer 12

ok so its the last one right

Answer 13

if you are convinced it is so, then I will agree with that

Answer 14

because the 14 +22 is changed

Answer 15

yep yep

Answer 16

we had 14+22 became 22+14
