(6 + 7) + 8 = 6 + (7 + 8)
The associative property in algebra is important for organization of numbers. Rearranging the numbers and parenthesis will not change values but instead make the equation more convenient.
The associative property. It works separately for addition and for multiplication.
That would be the associative property. The associative property applies to addition and multiplication, but not to subtraction or division.
The associative power applies to an operation- such as multiplication or addition - not to specific numbers.
Associative Property
commutative and associative. If the sentence has parentheses then it is associative.

In the case of addition: Commutative property: a + b = b + a Associative property: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) Note that (1) the commutative property involves two numbers; the associative property involves three; and (2) the commutative property changes the order of the operands; the associative property doesn't. Repeatedly applying the two properties allow you to rearrange an addition that involves several numbers in any order.
The answer cannot be addition of numbers because that sign can also go with the commutative property, not "only the associative property" as required by the question. For the same reason, the answer cannot be multiplication of numbers. Also, in both cases, multiplication is distributive over addition.
The ASSOCIATIVE property for addition states that the order in which the operation is carried out does not matter. Symbolically, (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) and so, without ambiguity, either can be written as a + b + c. Rational numbers are also associative under multiplication.
No it is not an associative property.
a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c for any [ordinary] numbers a, b, and c.
