19 + (11 + 37)

Instead of solving within the parentheses first, Lennie solved 19 + 11.

This is also correct to do so based on the associative property of addition.

The associative property of addition states that you can add numbers regardless of how they are placed.

Associative property of addition: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c)
