Ansley Hendrix · Answer 1

The answer is C. The commutative property is when you can move the numbers around to get the same answer. Since 3 + 5 = 7, 5 + 3 = 7, and they use the same numbers so you can verify that this is the commutative property.

Mack · Answer 2

The commutative property of addition states that a + b = b + a, in other words, the numbers in an addition problem can be flipped, but the result will be the same, the answer is C.
