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 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.
Property you can use to add or multiply numbers in any order?
There are three basic properties of numbers: Associative, Commutative, and Distributive. The commutative property says that b + a = a + b and a * b = b * a.
Do you rearrange numbers in a problem is it the associative property?
No. Rearranging numbers [2+3=3+2] is the commutative property. The associative property involves rearranging parentheses - (3 x 4) x 6 = 3 x (4 x 6).
What are the four properties in math?
The four fundamental properties in mathematics are the commutative property, associative property, distributive property, and identity property. The commutative property states that the order of addition or multiplication does not affect the result. The associative property indicates that the grouping of numbers does not change their sum or product. The identity property defines that adding zero or multiplying by one does not change the value of a number.

What propertyis the way in which three or more numbers are grouped fro addition or muliplication does not change their sum orproduct respectively?
It is the associative property as well as the commutative property.
How are commutative and associative properties the same?
the switch the numbers arond
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.
What is it when adding three numbers and regrouping gives the same sum?
It is a result of the associative property of numbers.It is a result of the associative property of numbers.It is a result of the associative property of numbers.It is a result of the associative property of numbers.
Is multiplication of a whole number associative?
Yes. Multiplication of integers, of rational numbers, of real numbers, and even of complex numbers, is both commutative and associative.
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.
How can you tell the difference between the associative commutative distributive and the identity properties?
The associative property refers to grouping numbers, which allows you to regroup numbers without changing the answer. 2(1x) = (2x1)xThe commutative property refers to changing the order of numbers without changing the answer. 4+1 = 1+4The distributive property refers to distribution of multiplication over addition. a x (b + c) = a x b + a x c
How is subtraction rational numbers different from adding?
Subtraction is not commutative nor associative.
