(36+59)+30=36+(59+30)85+30=36+11
Answer (1)
Answer:The given equation demonstrates the associative property of addition, which states that the way in which numbers are grouped does not affect their sum. Specifically, (36 + 59) + 30 equals 36 + (59 + 30). Calculating each side: (36 + 59) + 30 equals 95 + 30, which is 125; and 36 + (59 + 30) equals 36 + 89, also equal to 125. However, the statement '85 + 30 = 36 + 11' appears to be incorrect because the left side sums to 115, whereas the right side sums to 47. Therefore, the initial part correctly illustrates the associative property of addition, but the latter equation does not hold true.Step-by-step explanation:
