Answer 2

haha! this is the commutative property. All it takes to figure out is a simple search of the definitions of each property. ex:

The word "commutative" comes from "commute" or "move around", so the Commutative Property is the one that refers to moving stuff around. For addition, the rule is "a + b = b + a"; in numbers, this means 2 + 3 = 3 + 2.
