Question

Which property is demonstrated by the following statement?
16+(22+a)=(16+22)+a

Answer 1

Associative Property

Answer 2

Associative property

Explanation:

The Associative property states that if a,b and c are 3 terms then,

a+(b+c) = (a+b)+c

Here, we are given:

16+(22+a)=(16+22)+a

Here, a=16 ,b=22 and c=a

Hence, the property which is demonstrated by the statement 16+(22+a)=(16+22)+a is:
