Commutative, this is the commutative property of the operation. Think of it like this, the order doesn't matter.

This is the commutative property of multiplication. It is called "commutative" because the values change or "travel" on their side of the equal sign without affecting the answer.
Note that only addition and muliplication have the commutative property. There is no commutative property for subtraction or division, because in those cases, the order of the values is important to the answer.

this is not a property of equality, but a property of multiplication. it is the commutative property of multiplication.
if you meant xy = xy, that is the reflexive property of equality, but we would generally write this as x = x.
