Q. Which property of addition is shown?(m+n)+p=m+(n+p)Choices:(A)associative(B)commutative(C)identity
Understand Addition Properties: Understand the properties of addition. The associative property of addition states that the way in which numbers are grouped does not change their sum. This is expressed as (a+b)+c=a+(b+c). The commutative property of addition states that the order in which two numbers are added does not change their sum. This is expressed as a+b=b+a. The identity property of addition states that any number plus zero is the number itself. This is expressed as a+0=a.
Compare with Given Equation: Compare the given equation with the properties of addition.The given equation is (m+n)+p=m+(n+p). We need to determine which property of addition this equation represents.
Identify Property: Identify the property shown by the given equation.The given equation (m+n)+p=m+(n+p) matches the format of the associative property of addition, where the grouping of the addends is changed but the sum remains the same.
