         <description><![CDATA[Explain how the commutative property of multiplication applies when calculating the total cost of two items, regardless of the order in which they are purchased. For example, buying 3 apples at $1 each and 4 oranges at $2 each will always cost the same total, no matter the order.]]></description>

For example, if 3 people each need to complete 5 tasks, you can distribute the tasks to see that the total number of tasks (3x5) can be broken down as 3(2+3) = 3x2 + 3x3.]]></description>
