Question

Which expression uses the commutative property of addition and the associative property of multiplication to rewrite the expression 5+3 * (3*8)

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

many things are possible.

the only thing we must not do is mixing the addition elements with the multiplication elements.

but we could change the expression to

3×(3×8) + 5

or

5 + (3×3)×8

or

5 + (3×8)×3

and so on, and it would always be the same result.
