Question

I don’t understand this

Answer 1

Basically

• Associative property shows the association between three or more numbers
• It shows that if we are adding or multiplying three or more numbers, the answer will not be changed in whatever order we multiply or add the three numbers
• For example in addition:

3+(5+2)= 10

3+7= 10

10=10

will give the same answer as

(3+5)+2=10

8+2=10

10=10

Hence the order of adding didn't affect our answer

Answer 2

The answer is c.) (4+8)+6=
4+(8+6)
4+14=18

The formula for associative property is (a+b)+c=a+(b+c)

An example would be:

(8+4)+2=8+(4+2)

Remembering this formula should be able to help you with associative property

Hope this helps
