Problem 2

Answer: Choice C) 3+5 = 5+3

The commutative property of addition is the idea of adding any two (or more) numbers in any order we want. In the example above, the 3 and 5 swap places. You can think of them commuting back and forth as if they are going from work to home (or vice versa).

A similar property is the commutative property of multiplication. An example would be 2*3 = 3*2 (shown in choice B).

Problem 3

The list of choices is not showing up, so I cannot answer this one. Please update.
