This is called associative property.

Step-by-step explanation:

• The term associative property states that when an expression has three terms, they can be grouped in any way to solve.
• The grouping of numbers will never change the result of the operation.
• The associative property is true for addition and multiplication but not for subtraction and division.

• Associative property of addition: Associative property of addition states that changing the grouping of addends does not change the sum.

• For example, ( 4 + 3 ) + 2 = 4 + ( 3 + 2 ) =9
