Given:
The expression is:
[tex]13+23+12+7[/tex]
To find:
The value of the given expression by using Commutative and Associative properties of numbers.
Solution:
We have,
[tex]13+23+12+7[/tex]
Applying parenthesis and brackets, we get
[tex]=[13+(23+12)]+7[/tex]
[tex]=[13+(12+23)]+7[/tex] [Commutative properties of numbers]
[tex]=[(13+12)+23]+7[/tex] [Associative properties of numbers]
[tex]=(25+23)+7[/tex]
Using Associative properties of numbers, we get
[tex]=25+(23+7)[/tex] [Associative properties of numbers]
[tex]=25+30[/tex]
[tex]=55[/tex]
Therefore, the value of the given expression 55.
