Use the Commutative Property of Multiplication to rewrite the algebraic expression: a^20⋅x^3

1 answer

Using the Commutative Property of Multiplication, we can rearrange the factors in the expression \( a^{20} \cdot x^3 \). This property states that the order of multiplication does not affect the result.

Thus, we can rewrite the expression as:

\[ x^3 \cdot a^{20} \]

Either ordering \( a^{20} \cdot x^3 \) or \( x^3 \cdot a^{20} \) is valid due to the commutative property.
