# Claim Reason
1 (b ⋅ d) ⋅ a = (d ⋅ a) ⋅ b (b ⋅ d) ⋅ a = (d ⋅ a) ⋅ b
2 ((b ⋅ d) ⋅ a) / b = ((d ⋅ a) ⋅ b) / b if (b ⋅ d) ⋅ a = (d ⋅ a) ⋅ b, then ((b ⋅ d) ⋅ a) / b = ((d ⋅ a) ⋅ b) / b
3 b / b = 1 b / b = 1
4 ((d ⋅ a) ⋅ b) / b = (d ⋅ a) ⋅ (b / b) ((d ⋅ a) ⋅ b) / b = (d ⋅ a) ⋅ (b / b)
5 ((d ⋅ a) ⋅ b) / b = (d ⋅ a) ⋅ 1 if ((d ⋅ a) ⋅ b) / b = (d ⋅ a) ⋅ (b / b) and b / b = 1, then ((d ⋅ a) ⋅ b) / b = (d ⋅ a) ⋅ 1
6 (d ⋅ a) ⋅ 1 = d ⋅ a (d ⋅ a) ⋅ 1 = d ⋅ a
7 ((d ⋅ a) ⋅ b) / b = d ⋅ a if ((d ⋅ a) ⋅ b) / b = (d ⋅ a) ⋅ 1 and (d ⋅ a) ⋅ 1 = d ⋅ a, then ((d ⋅ a) ⋅ b) / b = d ⋅ a
8 ((b ⋅ d) ⋅ a) / b = d ⋅ a if ((b ⋅ d) ⋅ a) / b = ((d ⋅ a) ⋅ b) / b and ((d ⋅ a) ⋅ b) / b = d ⋅ a, then ((b ⋅ d) ⋅ a) / b = d ⋅ a
9 ((b ⋅ d) ⋅ a) / b = (b ⋅ d) ⋅ (a / b) ((b ⋅ d) ⋅ a) / b = (b ⋅ d) ⋅ (a / b)
10 (b ⋅ d) ⋅ (a / b) = d ⋅ a if ((b ⋅ d) ⋅ a) / b = (b ⋅ d) ⋅ (a / b) and ((b ⋅ d) ⋅ a) / b = d ⋅ a, then (b ⋅ d) ⋅ (a / b) = d ⋅ a
