Identify the property being illustrated by each statement as either associative or commutative. Watch your spelling.
-
\(5 + 4 = 4 + 5\)
-
\(2 + (3 + 7) = (2 + 3) + 7 \)
-
\(5 + (1 + 2) + 4 = 5 + 1 + (2 + 4)\)
-
\(8 + (9 + 4) = 8 + (4 + 9) \)
-
\( 15 + 7 = 7 + 15 \)
-
\( (2 + 3) + 6 = 2 + (3 + 6) \)
-
\((8 + 7) + 3 = 8 + (7 + 3) \)
-
\( 4 + (9 + 1) = 4 + (1 + 9) \)
-
\( (2 + 4) + 3 + 11 = 2 + 4 + (3 + 11) \)
-
\( (5 + 2) + 7 = 5 + (2 + 7) \)
-
\( 6 + 10 = 10 + 6 \)
-
\( (5 + 8) + 9 = 9 + (5 + 8)\)
-
\(5 + (10 + 3) = 5 + (3 + 10) \)
-
\( 8 + 1 = 1 + 8 \)
-
\( 2 + (3 + 4) = (2 + 3) + 4 \)
-
\( 3 + 0 + (7 + 5) = 3 + 0 + (5 + 7) \)
-
\( 6 + (7 + 9) = (6 + 7) + 9 \)
- \( 4 + (3 + 2) + 8 = (4 + 3) + 2 + 8\)
