The Commutative Property of Addition and also Multiplication: means the order is not important. So if you are only adding, then the terms can be taken in any order. Also if you are only multiplying, they can be multiplied in any order. So 3 x 4 x 5 = 5 x 4 x 3 = 3 x 5 x 4, etc. Think of somebody who commutes to work. They move from one place to another. So the terms can commute around and the answer will stay the same.
