Commutative law
Addition and multiplication are both commutative; it doesn’t matter in what order the operation is performed.
Associative law
Addition and multiplication are associative; the terms can be regrouped without changing the result
(a+b)+c = a+(b+c)
Distributive law
The distributive law of multiplication/division allows us to distribute a factor among the terms being added or subtracted.
a(b+c) = ab+ac
