Question

Use the commutative property of multiplication to identify which expression is equivalent to 6(2)(x).

Answer 1

The commutative property is when you change the order but not the answer. To better understand what they are asking you, let's let x=1- 6 * 2 * 1=12; Answer A wouldn't be right because there are no 6,2, or x's. Remember you just change the ORDER not the GROUPING so Answer B is wrong too. Now Answer C and Answer D are left. Now you just need to look at the signs. 6(2) just means 6 TIMES 2 so pick the option with multiplication. So your answer is C. Hope I helped!
