What is the difference between the commutative property and associative property?
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.
What does commutative property and associative propperty mean?
it depends wht kind (multiplication, addition)
What is the property of addition and multiplication that makes it possible to change the order of the numbers and get the same answer?
commutative and associative. If the sentence has parentheses then it is associative.
Is 4 plus 2 equals 2 plus 4 a associative propertybof addition?
Its commutative property of addition
Is x plus y equals y plus x the associative property?
No, this is the commutative property. For addition, the associative property is: x + (y + z) = (x + y ) + z

No, this is the commutative property. For addition, the associative property is: x + (y + z) = (x + y ) + z
What are all the propertys in math?
zero property, inverse, commutative, associative, and distributative
What are the math properties?
They are the associative property, distributive property and the commutative property.
How do you do diffrenciate commutative and associative?
Commutatitive property: a + b = b + a Associative property: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) Although illustrated above for addition, it also applies to multiplication. But not subtraction or division!
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).
How are the associative and commutative properties alike and different?
The associative and commutative are properties of operations defined on mathematical structures. Both properties are concerned with the order - of operators or operands. According to the ASSOCIATIVE property, 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. According to the COMMUTATIVE property the order in which the addition is carried out does not matter. In symbolic terms, a + b = b + a For real numbers, both addition and multiplication are associative and commutative while subtraction and division are not. There are many mathematical structures in which a binary operation is not commutative - for example matrix multiplication.
What is the associative property of multiplication and commutative property of multiplication and distributive property of multiplication?
Commutative: a × b = b × a Associative: (a × b) × c = a × (b × c) Distributive: a × (b + c) = a × b + a × c
What signs go with only the associative property?
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.
