Commutative Property of Multiplication: if m and k are real numbers, then
The commutative property of multiplication states that the order of multiplying two numbers does not change the product (A × B = B × A).
The different letters stand for different numbers. Notice how on the left side of the equal sign, we have a * b, and on the right side of the equal sign, the b comes first. So, this formula is also telling us that it doesn't matter in what order we multiply our numbers. We will still get the same answer.
Even though this formula only shows two numbers, the commutative property of multiplication also applies when you multiply more than two numbers. When we have more than two numbers, we can switch around the numbers any which way we want. For example, if we have:
It can be rewritten as km
Hence the correct answer is Option B
