Which of the given equations show the associative property of addition?

A. 9 + 3 = 3 + 9
B. 9 + 0 = 9
C. 9 + 1 = 10
D. 2 + (5 + 8) = (2 + 5) + 8
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!

According to associative property of addition, when three or more numbers are added, the grouping of addends does not affect the sum or result.

a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c, where a, b, and c are any three counting numbers.

Look for the option, which is in the form a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c.

We notice that option D, 2 + (5 + 8) = (2 + 5) + 8 shows the associative property of addition.
