This is called the "commutative" property.
Associative
This is because in Western cultures, numbers above a thousand are grouped in 3s; the Greek prefices for the SI system are also grouped in powers of 10^3.
That is due to the Abelian, or commutative property of multiplication over the set of numbers.
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
When data is grouped and each of the intervals or categories has the same relative frequency, then no mode can be calculated. This can happen when the dataset is very limited. If all numbers in a dataset are the same, then it is impossible to calculate a mode, no matter how the data is grouped. Sometimes the level of variation is so much less than our measurement capability that we can not detect variations in variables.
The addition or multiplication of a set of numbers is the same regardless of how the numbers are grouped. The associative property will involve 3 or more numbers. The parenthesis indicates the terms that are considered one unit.The groupings (Associative Property) are within the parenthesis. Hence, the numbers are 'associated' together. In multiplication, the product is always the same regardless of their grouping. The Associative Property is pretty basic to computational strategies. Remember, the groupings in the brackets are always done first, this is part of the order of operations.
order of operations
The way in which numbers are grouped when added or multiplied does not change the sum or product.

16x6 cannot have the associative property. The associative property requires two [identical] operations, applied to 3 variables. There are not enough operations nor variables/numbers in the question.
The associative property.
I don't know which of these are 'first', but there is the:Identity Property - you can add zero and get the same number back.Commutative Property - numbers can be added in any order and get the same result.Associative Property - numbers can be grouped in parenthesis and added without changing the resulting sum.
It is the associative property as well as the commutative property.
regardless of what the problem is, they are always called integers. unless you have variables or fractions in the problem.
