A) Which of the following correctly demonstrates the Commutative Property of Addition?

1 answer

The Commutative Property of Addition states that changing the order of the addends does not change the sum. In mathematical terms, this property can be expressed as:

\[ a + b = b + a \]

So, to demonstrate the Commutative Property of Addition, you would need an example like:

For example:

  • \( 3 + 5 = 5 + 3 \)

Both sums equal 8, showing that the order of addition does not affect the outcome. If you provide specific options, I can help identify which one correctly demonstrates this property.
