A numerical expression includes numbers and operation symbols, addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Because addition is commutative, adding from left to right, or right to left, gives you the same result.

The expressions 2 + 3 and 3 + 2 give the same result. But this isn't the case with all operations.

Subtraction isn't commutative.
