  • Real numbers
  • Commutative PropertiesCommutative Property of Addition:If a,ba,b are real numbers, then a+b=b+aa+b=b+a Commutative Property of Multiplication:If a,ba,b are real numbers, then a⋅b=b⋅aa\cdot{}b=b\cdot{}a
  • Associative PropertiesAssociative Property of Addition:If a,b,ca,b,c are real numbers then (a+b)+c=a+(b+c)(a+b)+c=a+(b+c) Associative Property of Multiplication:If a,b,ca,b,c are real numbers then (a⋅b)⋅c=a⋅(b⋅c)(a\cdot{}b)\cdot{}c=a\cdot(b\cdot{}c)
  • Distributive Property:If a,b,ca,b,c are real numbers thena(b+c)=ab+aca(b+c)=ab+ac(b+c)a=ba+ca(b+c)a=ba+caa(b−c)=ab−aca(b-c)=ab-ac
