The Commutative Property of Multiplication states that changing the order of factors does not change the product.
Thus, the factors in the given multiplication are:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2*(6a-3) \\ Factor\text{ 1: 2} \\ \text{ Factor 2: \lparen6a-3\rparen} \end{gathered}[/tex]
Thus, if we change the order we obtain:
[tex]2*(6a-3)=(6a-3)*2[/tex]
The answer is the first option.
