The associative property states that, for the sum of three or more integers the order in which the summation in carried out does not make a difference to the answer. Thus, for any three integers, A, B and C:
(A + B) + C = A + (B + C) and so, without ambiguity, we can write either as A + B + C.
Note that A + B need not be the same as B + A. The order of the integers DOES matter. It is the order of the summing that does not.

Which of the basic rules of arithmetic are true when you restrict the number system to the positive integers?
Closure with respect to addition and multiplication. Cummutative, Associative properties of addition and of multiplication. Distributive property of multiplication over addition.
Is associative properties and associative properties of addition the same?
No because the associative property can be found in other operations as well.
What is Adding integers and rational number rules?
The set of integers is closed under addition so that if x and y are integers, then x + y is an integer.Addition of integers is commutative, that is x + y = y + xAddition of integers is associative, that is (x + y) + z = x + (y + z) and so, without ambiguity, either can be written as x + y + z.The same three rules apply to addition of rational numbers.
How do you do addition integers?
addition and subtract in integers
What is the addition of integers?
the addition of integers is when adding negative and positive integers
