__**Commutative Property for Addition**__
by: Amirah For example 4 + 2 = 2 + 4 Whichever order you set the numbers your sum would still be the same. Another example- 5 + 4 = 4 + 5
 * Commutative property for addition:** When two numbers are added, the sum is the same regardless of the order of the addends.

__**Commutative Property of Multiplication**__

The commutative property of multiplication is when you can break up one factor of a multiplication problem into its addends, multiply them by the other factor, and then add the products together to get the whole answer. For example if you have 3*4=4*3 you already know that you would get the same exact answer the answer would obviously be 12=12 because 3*4 equal 12

The word commutative comes from the word commute, which means to move around, exchange and change order.

Commutative Property
An is commutative if you can //change the order// of the numbers involved without changing the result. Multiplication is commutative. Subtraction is not commutative: 2 - 1 is not equal to 1 - 2. 2-1 = -1 Here are some examples of the commutative properties of multiplication: 12 * 13 = 13 * 12 156 = 156. 2(24)= 24(2) 48=48 [|operation] examples from a website 2 * (4 * 3) = (2 * 4) * 3 2 * (12) = (8) * 3 24 = 24. a * (b * c) = (a * b) * c.
