Question
Are (11 + 7) + 10 and 11 + (7 + 10) equal? Mention the property.
Sum
Solution
First we take (11 + 7) + 10 = 18 + 10 = 28
Now 11 + (7 + 10) = 11 + 17 = 28
In both cases, the sum is 28.
∴ (11 + 7) + 10 = 11 + (7 + 10)
This property is known as the associative property of integers under addition.
