Answer 4

[AI-generated answer — Explain Bot]

The property of addition that has been applied in the given statement is the commutative property.

To explain how to get the answer, the commutative property of addition states that the order in which numbers are added does not affect the sum. In other words, when you add two numbers, you can switch their positions and still get the same result.

In the given equation, 5 + 8 = 8 + 5, the numbers 5 and 8 are being added. We can see that the order of the numbers is switched in the equation, yet the sum remains the same. This is an example of the commutative property of addition. Therefore, the correct answer is B) Commutative.
