This is possible because the order of the addends does not matter. For example, 3+8 is the same as 8+3. No matter how you list the addends, the sum will always be the same.
Commutative property of addition :)
Changing the order of addends does not change their sum. In symbolic form, a + b =b + a. Subtraction is not commutative .
Commutative property or Abelian property.
According to the commutative property of addition, the order of the addends does not affect the result. Thus, A + B = B + A
Commutative property: When two numbers are added, the sum is the same regardless of the order of the addends. For example 4 + 2 = 2 + 4

No, that's the Commutative Property of Addition.
Whichever one changes the order of the addends. a + b = b + a
Cummutative Property=> The order of addends [does not] change the sum!
The order in which the addends (in addition) or multiplicands (in multiplication) does not affect the answer. If symbolic form: a + b = b + a or a * b = b * a
Commutative property: When two numbers are added, the sum is the same regardless of the order of the addends. For example 4 + 2 = 2 + 4
In the expression 3(4+5)which property allows you to distribute the 3to both the 4and 5
16 + 31 = 31 + 16This shows COMMUTATIVE PROPERTY OF ADDITION. It means that changing the order of the addends does not affect the sum.
