Fill in the Blank

A financial auditor is reconciling account balances represented by the expression 84n+(73n)+84n-84n + (-73n) + 84n. To simplify, the auditor first reorders the terms to 84n+84n+(73n)-84n + 84n + (-73n). They then sum the opposites, noting that 84n+84n=0-84n + 84n = 0. This specific step of adding a term and its opposite to get $0$ demonstrates the ____ property of addition.
