Absolutely! Let’s solve this worksheet step by step using the
Commutative Property of Multiplication.

✔ What is the Commutative Property of Multiplication?
>
The order in which you multiply two numbers does not change the product.
In math terms:
a × b = b × a
So, if you see something like `6 × 3 = 3 × ___`, you just need to put the
other number (6) in the blank to make it equal.

🧮 Let’s solve each problem:
#### 1. `6 × 3 = 3 × ___`
→ Switch the order → `3 × 6`
✔ Answer: 6
#### 2. `4 × 7 = 7 × ___`
→ Switch the order → `7 × 4`
✔ Answer: 4
#### 3. `8 × 2 = ___ × 8`
→ Switch the order → `2 × 8`
✔ Answer: 2
#### 4. `9 × 4 = ___ × 9`
→ Switch the order → `4 × 9`
✔ Answer: 4
#### 5. `2 × 7 = ___ × 2`
→ Switch the order → `7 × 2`
✔ Answer: 7
#### 6. `4 × 5 = ___ × 4`
→ Switch the order → `5 × 4`
✔ Answer: 5
#### 7. `3 × 8 = ___ × 3`
→ Switch the order → `8 × 3`
✔ Answer: 8
#### 8. `7 × ___ = 8 × 7`
→ Right side is `8 × 7`, so left must be `7 × 8`
✔ Answer: 8
#### 9. `2 × ___ = 8 × 2`
→ Right side is `8 × 2`, so left must be `2 × 8`
✔ Answer: 8
#### 10. `5 × 7 = ___ × 5`
→ Switch the order → `7 × 5`
✔ Answer: 7
#### 11. `6 × ___ = 8 × 6`
→ Right side is `8 × 6`, so left must be `6 × 8`
✔ Answer: 8
#### 12. `___ × 8 = 8 × 6`
→ Right side is `8 × 6`, so left must be `6 × 8`
✔ Answer: 6

💡 Tip for Students:
Just remember —
flip the numbers! If you have `A × B`, it equals `B × A`. That’s all the commutative property is saying!
