Which of the following correctly demonstrates the use of the Commutative Property of Multiplication?(1 point)

Responses

2(b10+z11)=(b10+z11)⋅2

11(b+z)=11b+11z

z11⋅2=z11+2

3(b10+4)=3(4+b10)3

The option that correctly demonstrates the use of the Commutative Property of Multiplication is:

11(b+z)=11b+11z

This expression showcases the distributive property rather than the commutative property. To correctly demonstrate the commutative property of multiplication, you would show that changing the order of multiplication doesn't change the result, such as:

2 * 3 = 3 * 2

However, neither of the options correctly illustrates the commutative property as they involve distribution or addition rather than simply rearranging multiplicands.

If you need an example using the commutative property with multiplication, you could consider something like:

a * b = b * a
