Show the commutative property for Addition
a = 6, b = 5, and c = 4
Commutative Property (Addition)
a + b + c = c + b + a
Plug in a = 6, b = 5, c = 4
6 + 5 + 4 = 4 + 5 + 6
Evaluating, we get:
15
Show the commutative property for Multiplication
a = 6, b = 5, and c = 4
Commutative Property (Multiplication)
a * b * c = c * b * a
Plug in a = 6, b = 5, c = 4
6 * 5 * 4 = 4 * 5 * 6
Evaluating, we get:
120
Final Answer
6 + 5 + 4 = 4 + 5 + 6
6 * 5 * 4 = 4 * 5 * 6
6 + 5 + 4 = 4 + 5 + 6
6 * 5 * 4 = 4 * 5 * 6
