Question

This is my question: what property is shown below? 3 + (5+8) = (3+5) + 8

Answer 1

Properties of the addition

No matter the order you add multiple numbers.

In the case of:

3 + 5 + 8

We can add first 5 and 8

3 + (5+8)

or first 3 and 5

(3 + 5) + 8 ​

This is called associative property of addition.
