The Commutative Property • Background – The word commutative comes from the verb “to commute. ” – Definition on dictionary. com • Commuting means changing, replacing, or exchanging – People who travel back and forth to work are called commuters. • Traffic Reports given during rush hours are also called commuter reports.

Here are two families of commuters. Commuter B Commuter A & Commuter B changed

Here are two families of commuters. Commuter B Commuter A & Commuter B changed lanes. Remember… commute means to change. Commuter B Commuter A

Think of this hypothetical situation: Every day you ride your bike to school. The distance from home to school is 2 miles. The distance from school to home is also 2 miles. How do we know this? Did you notice that hypothetical and hypothesis look almost the same? Hmmmm. . . Think about what hypothesis means…

Home School The distance from Home to School is the same as the distance

Home School The distance from Home to School is the same as the distance from school to home. Home + School = School + Home H+S=S+H A+B=B+A

The Commutative Property A+B=B+A

The Commutative Property A+B=B+A

The Associative Property • Background – The word associative comes from the verb “to associate. ” – Definition on dictionary. com • Associate means connected, joined, or related – People who work together are called associates. • They are joined together by business, and they do talk to one another.

Let’s look at another hypothetical situation Three people work together. Associate B needs to call Associates A and C to share some news. Does it matter who he calls first?

Here are three associates. B calls A first He calls C last B A

Here are three associates. B calls A first He calls C last B A If he called C first, then called A, would it have made a difference? NO! C

(The Role of Parentheses) • In math, we use parentheses to show groups. •

(The Role of Parentheses) • In math, we use parentheses to show groups. • In the order of operations, the numbers and operations in parentheses are done first. (PEMDAS) So….

The Associative Property The parentheses identify which two associates talked first. (A + B)

The Associative Property The parentheses identify which two associates talked first. (A + B) + C = A + (B + C) B A B THEN C A C
