Which property is shown by 2+0=2?

A. Associative property of addition
B. Commutative property of addition
C. Distributive property
D. Identity property of addition
Is the answer B?

It’s D, identity property of addition!

So the answer is D?

Don't forget

No, the correct answer is D. Identity property of addition.

To understand why, let's go through the options one by one:

A. Associative property of addition: This property states that when adding three or more numbers, the grouping of the numbers does not affect the sum. For example, (3 + 4) + 5 = 3 + (4 + 5). However, in the given equation, there are only two numbers, 2 and 0, so this property is not applicable here.

B. Commutative property of addition: This property states that the order in which numbers are added does not affect the sum. For example, 3 + 4 = 4 + 3. However, in the given equation, the order of addition is not changed, so this property is also not applicable.

C. Distributive property: This property relates to operations involving multiplication and addition. It states that a multiplication operation distributes over addition. For example, a × (b + c) = (a × b) + (a × c). Since there is no multiplication operation involved in the equation, this property is not applicable here.

D. Identity property of addition: This property states that adding zero to any number will yield that number as the sum. In the given equation, we are adding 0 to 2, and the sum is indeed 2. Therefore, the correct answer is D, the identity property of addition.

So, the answer is not B but D, the identity property of addition.

yes, it is D

what property is 4+6=6+4

D

additive identity = 0
multiplicative identity = 1

a+0 = a
a*1 = a

for any value of a
