There are six different ways to add the numbers 6, 7, and 8, and each arrangement yields a total of 21. The arrangements are 6 + 7 + 8, 6 + 8 + 7, 7 + 6 + 8, 7 + 8 + 6, 8 + 6 + 7, and 8 + 7 + 6. This demonstrates the commutative property of addition, where the sum remains constant regardless of the order of the numbers.
