Solution

Verify the associative property of $(- 112) + (- 81) + 19$
According to the Associative property of addition of integers, for any three integers $a, b and c$ , $(a + b) + c = a + (b + c)$ .
$\begin{array}{rcl} [(- 112) + (- 81)] + 19 & = & (- 112) + [(- 81) + 19] \\ - 193 + 19 & = & (- 112) + (- 62) \\ - 174 & = & - 174 \\ i . e ., L H S & = & R H S \end{array}$
Therefore, this equation follows the associative property of the addition.
