What are the commutative law, the associative law, and the distributive law?
The commutative law states that the order of the numbers in an addition or multiplication equation does not affect the result. For example, 2 + 3 is the same as 3 + 2, and 2 x 3 is the same as 3 x 2. The associative law states that the grouping of numbers in an addition or multiplication equation does not affect the result. For example, (2 + 3) + 4 is the same as 2 + (3 + 4), and (2 x 3) x 4 is the same as 2 x (3 x 4). The distributive law states that multiplication distributes over addition, meaning that a(b + c) is equal to ab + ac. This law is used to simplify expressions and equations involving both addition and multiplication.
