Answer: So what my teacher always told me to do was act like a fraction was a tree. The tree always falls to the left which then outs the fraction as a division problem. You solve the division problem

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so for example, lets use \frac{1}{2}. Drawing it as a tree it then falls to the left. Therefore it becomes 1 ÷ 2. So 2 can not go into one therefore you need to put a decimal point at the top and add a zero behind the 1 under the bar. The 1 then becomes a 10, therefore 2 can go into 10 5 times. However the answer is not 5. You have to remember to bring the decimal point that you placed before the 5. In conclusion hte answer is .5 . This may be confusing because I am not able to include any photos but hopefully you'll get the point.

Communicate mathematical ideas why might you want to use the commutative property to change the order of the integers in the fol
Kruka [31]

I might want to use the commutative property to change the order of the integers in the following sum before adding the given expression

"-80 + (-173)+(-20)"

As commutative property states that " Changing the order of addends does not change the sum" which means if we add 'a' to 'b' or 'b' to 'a', we will get the same answer.

Therefore, here if we add '-80' to '-173' or '-173' to '-80' , or if we add '-173' to '-20' or '-20' to '-173' , we will get the same answer.

Therefore, we might use commutative property to change the order the of integers in the following sum.
