Question

(06.06) Which of the following demonstrates the Commutative Property of Multiplication? 3(4a − 2) = 12a − 6 3(4a − 2) = (4a − 2) ⋅ 3 12a − 6 = (4a − 2) ⋅ 3 (3 ⋅ 4a) − 2 = 3(4a − 2)

Answer 1

commutative property of multiplication states : a * b = b * a...so basically, u can move the numbers around and it will still equal the same thing
3(4a - 2) = (4a - 2) * 3 <==

Answer 2

Commutative means you can reverse the order without affecting the result of the multiplication:- a*b = b*a.
so its the second option:-

3(4a - 2) = (4a - 2).3
