volume_mute

Using the numbers 5 and 9, which statement illustrates the commutative property of multiplication?

\(5 + 9 = 9 + 5\)

\(5 \times 9 = 9 \times 5\)

\((5 \times 9) = 5 \times (9)\)

\(5 \times 9 = 45\)

\(5 \times 9 = 9 \times 5\)

The commutative property shows that the order of factors can be swapped without changing the product: \(5 \times 9 = 9 \times 5 = 45\).
