How does knowing the commutative property cut the number of facts to be learned in half?

The above is only partially true since not all mathematical operations are commutative. For example, subtraction is not commutative (though addition using negative numbers is).
Where an operaton is commutative it does halve the number of facts to be learned. For example, when you have learned 2+3 = 5, you do not need to learn 3+2.

What does to increase number mean?
It mean like Commutative Property of Addition
What number property lets you change the order of numbers in a number sentence without changing the sum?
That's the commutative property.
What does commutative property mean is math?
The commutative property means that number's positions can be changed, but their answer will stay the same. This property works for addition and multiplication. For example 5+6 = 6+5 or 3x2 = 2x3.
What are the properties of addition for elementary?
The relevant properties are the commutative property, the associative property, and the property of zero (i.e., if you add zero to a number you get the same number again).
Which property is in this equation 2 plus 8 equals 8 plus 2?
2 plus 8 equals 8 plus 2 demonstrates the commutative property of addition
What property can you multiply two number in either order?
Commutative property.
Why doesn't the commutative property work for subtraction?
you can not use commutative property for subtraction because if you switch them around you will end up with a negative number.
What is a number sentence that shows commutative property of addition?
9+7

That's the commutative property.
What are the same property like Associative property and Commutative property?
Basic number properties (including three properties) and distributive property.

If you know that 7x8 equals 56 how can you use the commutative property of multiplication to find the product of 8x7?
it any number can multiply by the same its commutative
Which property is in this equation 2 plus 8 equals 8 plus 2?
2 plus 8 equals 8 plus 2 demonstrates the commutative property of addition
What is commutative property of addition using decimal numbers?
The commutative property of addition applies to all real and complex numbers. It has nothing whatsoever to do with the form in which the number is represented: decimal, binary, etc.
Properties of number theory?
zero property of multiplication commutative property of multiplication identity property of addition identity prpertyof multiplication your welcome:-)
