Question

State the commutative property of multiplication, and provide an example using two different numbers.

Answer 1

The commutative property of multiplication states that the numbers of the operation can change their order, and this action will not alter the outcome.

Example 1:

`8*4=32`

Changing the order of the numbers in the operation:

`4*8=32\\\\Then,\\8*4=4*8`

Example 2:

`10*12=120`

Changing the order of the numbers in the operation:

`12*10=120\\\\Then,\\10*12=12*10`
