What is adding numbers in any order and the sum will be the same?
It is the commutative property of addition.
What is the rule for adding or multiplying a set of numbers in different order?
If you have ONLY additions, you can add numbers in any order. Similarly, if you have ONLY multiplications, you can multiply in any order. Both rules follow from the commutative and associative properties of addition, and of multiplication, respectively.
Which property of addition states the order of adding three numbers does not affect the sum?
There are two concepts here that are often confused. If you mean that the order of the operation of addition can be carried out in any order then it is the property of associativity. If you mean that the numbers can be written in any order then the property is commutativity.
What is the definition of Commutative Property of Addition?
In symbols, this property is that for any numbers a and b, a + b = b + a. Informally it says that adding a to b is the same as adding b to a; or it does not matter whether you start at the top or the bottom when adding numbers.
What is the word you use to work out a sum?
Any +++ Strictly speaking, it is ADD. The word 'sum' is used colloquially for any simple arithmetical calculation, but in mathematics a 'sum' is properly the result of adding two or more numbers.
