Exploring the Associative Property of Addition

What does the associative property of addition help with in mathematics?

• Subtracting numbers in any order without changing the difference

• Multiplying numbers in a specific order to get a higher product

• Ensuring the sum remains the same regardless of how numbers are grouped

• Changing the sum by altering the order of numbers
