Explanation:
The difference between associative and commutative property is that:
a} In Associative property numbers can be grouped in any way and yet the answer will be same.
Ex 1; (2+3)+2 or (2+2)+3 gives the same result i.e.
Ex 2; (2*3)+2 or (2+2)*3 gives the same result i.e. 12
b} In Commutative property numbers can be arranged in any order yet the result is same
Ex 1; 2+6+1 or 1+2+6 gives the same result i.e. 9
