Select the multiplication sentence that applies the commutative property of multiplication to the example.

Example: 4 × 6 = 24
A.
12 × 2 = 24
B.
6 × 4 = 24
C.
8 × 3 = 24

Respuesta :

The correct answer is B


EXPLANATION


The commutative property of multiplication says that, if you are multiplying two numbers, the order of the multiplication does not matter. You will get the same result, no matter which one you bring first or second during the multiplication process.


That is, if a and b are two real numbers, then the commutative property of multiplication says that,


[tex]a\times b = b\times a[/tex]


So for the above options,



[tex]6\times 4 = 4\times 6[/tex]


[tex]24= 24[/tex]


Note that the numbers have not changed, so their values will not change also.


We are NOT referring to a situation where the numbers will change whilst their values is still the same.
