Question

If $(\frac{a}{b}+\frac{c}{d})+\frac{e}{f}=\frac{a}{b}+(\frac{c}{d}+\frac{e}{f})$, then this expression represents .

• A. commutativity
• B. associativity
• C. closure property

Answer 1

The correct option is B associativity

$(\frac{a}{b}+\frac{c}{d})+\frac{e}{f}=\frac{a}{b}+(\frac{c}{d}+\frac{e}{f})$

This expression represents associative property.

The associative property states that the result of addition or multiplication does not change regardless of how the numbers are grouped.
