The video tutorial explains the commutative property, which states that the order of numbers in multiplication and addition does not affect the result. For example, 4 * 3 equals 3 * 4, and 4 + 3 equals 3 + 4. The tutorial highlights that this property is commonly used, often without awareness, but it does not apply to division and subtraction.

What does the commutative property state about multiplication?

• a * b is always less than b * a

• a * b is unrelated to b * a

• a * b is the same as b * a

• a * b is always greater than b * a

Which of the following is an example of the commutative property of addition?

• 4 + 3 = 7 and 3 + 4 = 7

• 4 - 3 = 1 and 3 - 4 = -1

• 4 / 3 = 1.33 and 3 / 4 = 0.75

• 4 * 3 = 12 and 3 * 4 = 12

Why doesn't the commutative property apply to division?

• Because division is not a basic arithmetic operation

• Because the order of numbers affects the result

• Because division is the same as multiplication

• Because division is always greater than multiplication
