Real numbers are simply the combination of Whole numbers, Integers, Rational and Irrational numbers in the number system.

02

Step-2 – Commutative Property of Addition of Real Numbers: 

Suppose a, b, and c is three real numbers.

Commutative Property of Addition:

Property: a + b = b + a

If you add two real numbers in any order, the sum will always be the same.

Example: 5 + 2 = 2 + 5 = 7

03

Step-3 – Evaluate the expression

Commutative property of Addition states, if you add two real numbers in any order, the sum will always be the same.

Evaluate the expression:

To evaluate the expressionx+6+11, the termxis a variable. The terms 6and 11are constants.

Using the Commutative property of addition, adding like terms,
