Solution

Adding the given numbers, and finding the sum
$65, 487 + 32, 185 = 97, 672$
Reversing the order of the addends, we have
$32, 185 + 65, 487 = 97, 672$
Changing the order of two whole numbers does not change their sum.
Hence, by the commutative property of addition, $65, 487 + 32, 185 = 32, 185 + 65, 487$
