a+b=b+a
OpenStudy (anonymous):
which option has that framework?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
There is no option for that answer.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no, that's just the basic way to represent commutative addition
OpenStudy (anonymous):
an example would be if a=1 and b=2:
1+2=2+1

now which answer choice is similar to the example?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
D would be, right?
OpenStudy (dtan5457):
D is not right, that is a identity property.
OpenStudy (dtan5457):
Commutative in shorter words is that, the order when adding does NOT matter.
1+2+3=6
2+3+1=6
OpenStudy (anonymous):
A. 4+2=2+4

A is the answer?
OpenStudy (dtan5457):
Aww come on now, there was a reason we were explaining everything.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The word "commutative" comes from "commute" or "move around", so the Commutative Property is the one that refers to moving stuff around.
