Associative Properties

What is the associative property of addition?

• Changing the order of numbers being added changes the sum.

• The sum of numbers being added is always the same.

• The associative property only applies to subtraction.

• Changing the grouping of numbers being added does not change the sum.

Write an expression using the associative property of addition with numbers: 2, 3, and 4.

• (2 + 4) + 3 = 2 + (4 + 3)

• (2 + 3) + 4 = 2 + (3 + 4)

• (3 + 4) + 2 = 3 + (4 + 2)

• (4 + 2) + 3 = 4 + (2 + 3)

How does the associative property of addition help in simplifying calculations?

• By multiplying numbers instead of adding them

• By rearranging the order of numbers being added

• By subtracting numbers instead of adding them

• By regrouping numbers being added together without changing the sum.

Explain the difference between the commutative and associative properties of addition.

• Commutative property deals with changing the grouping of addends, while associative property deals with changing the order of addends.

• Commutative property deals with changing the order of addends, while associative property deals with changing the grouping of addends.

• Commutative property changes the value of addends, while associative property changes the order of addends.

• Commutative property involves multiplication, while associative property involves division.
