Solution Steps

To determine if the given expression \((7+8)+4 = (4+8)+7\) is true, we need to evaluate both sides of the equation and compare the results.

We start by evaluating the left side of the expression: \[ (7 + 8) + 4 = 15 + 4 = 19 \]

Next, we evaluate the right side of the expression: \[ (4 + 8) + 7 = 12 + 7 = 19 \]

Now we compare the results from both sides: \[ 19 = 19 \] Since both sides are equal, the expression holds true.
