There is no evidence of the associative property in the sequence of number given in the question.
Associative property would look like the following: 5 + (3 + 2) = (5 + 3) + 2 = 10
it's actually spelled "associative" property. But associative is like when you have three or more numbers that associate into just one group and anyway that you add or subtract it will always be the same answer: (2 + 5) + 4 = 11 or 2 + (5 + 4) = 11 (9 + 3) + 4 = 16 or 9 + (3 + 4) = 16
5*17*2 The commutative property allows yu to swap the 17 and 2: = 5*2*17 The associative property allows you to group 5 and 2 to evaluate first = (5*2)*17 = 10*17 = 170
If there is an equals sign between the 3 and 5 of 35, then it is the associative property of multiplication.
