| Commutative Property (Subtraction of Integers) Commutative Property (Addition of Integers) | Commutative Property (Addition of Whole Numbers) | Commutative Property (Division of integers) | Commutative Property (Division of Whole Numbers) | Commutative Property (Multipication of Integers) | Commutative Property (Multipication of Whole Numbers) | Commutative Property (Subtraction of Integers) | Commutative Property (Subtraction of Whole Numbers) | Explanation :-
Subtraction is not commutative for integers, this means that when we change the order of numbers in subtraction expression, the result also changes.
Commutative Property for Subtraction of Integers can be further understood with the help of following examples :-
Example 1 = Explain Commutative Property for subtraction of integers (-7) & (-17) ?
Answer = Given Integers = (-7), (-17) and their two orders are as follows :-
Order 1 = (-7) - (-17) = 10
Order 2 = (-17) - (-7) = (-10)
As, in both the orders the result is different.
So, we can say that Subtraction is not commutative for integers.
Example 2 = Explain Commutative Property for subtraction of integers (-3) & (-9) ?
Answer = Given Integers = (-3), (-9) and their two orders are as follows :-
Order 1 = (-3) - (-9) = 6
Order 2 = (-9) - (-3) = (-6)
As, in both the orders the result is different.
So, we can say that Subtraction is not commutative for integers.
Example 3 = Explain Commutative Property for subtraction of integers (-20) & (-30) ?
Answer = Given Integers = (-20), (-30) and their two orders are as follows :-
Order 1 = (-20) - (-30) = 10
Order 2 = (-30) - (-20) = (-10)
As, in both the orders the result is different.
So, we can say that Subtraction is not commutative for integers.
