Do you have one of these options in mind as the answer? Just wondering. @yoyogators

Look at this properties chart which I have attached. It shows examples with numbers but one of these properties is the answer to your question.

I can give you a hint.

Associative property of ADDITION:(3+2)+4=3+(2+4)

directrix · Answer

Another hint: the Associative property has to do with GROUPING as shown by @dtan5457

anonymous · Answer

From the chart it looks like A

directrix · Answer

Wow. I think that is correct. What do you think @dtan5457

dtan5457 · Answer

Looks about right. Associative shows that parenthesis do not affect the product or sum of numbers. It can be done with any sort of grouping, you'll get the same answer.

directrix · Answer

So, A it is @yoyogators
