Which of the following demonstrates the Commutative Property of Multiplication?

5(2a − 3) = 10a − 15

10a − 15 = (2a − 3) ⋅ 5

5(2a − 3) = (2a − 3) ⋅ 5

(5 ⋅ 2a) − 3 = 5(2a − 3)

Option c shows the correct commulatove property of multiplication
because 5 multiplies with the bracket but only its position changes which does not havd any effect on answer whereas in other options answer will be quite different.
