Answer:

Jan is using commutative property.

Explanation:

Commutative property is when you switch values and they don't make a change in the outcome.

Just remember, this only applies to addition and multiplication but does not apply to division or subtraction!!!

Examples:

2+4=6

4+2=6

9x3=27

3x9=27
