. Take any two/three rational numbers and check whether the commutative/associative property of subtraction holds or not.
Answers
commutative property
Subtraction of two rational numbers is not commutative.
If a/b and c/d are any two rational numbers,
then (a/b) - (c/d) ≠ (c/d) - (a/b)
Example :
5/9 - 2/9 = 3/9 = 1/3
2/9 - 5/9 = -3/9 = -1/3
Hence, 5/9 - 2/9 ≠ 2/9 - 5/9
Therefore, Commutative property is not true for subtraction.
Associative Property
Subtraction of rational numbers is not associative.
If a/b, c/d and e/f are any three rational numbers,
then a/b - (c/d - e/f) ≠ (a/b - c/d) - e/f
Example :
2/9 - (4/9 - 1/9) = 2/9 - 3/9 = -1/9
(2/9 - 4/9) - 1/9 = -2/9 - 1/9 = -3/9
Hence, 2/9 - (4/9 - 1/9) ≠ (2/9 - 4/9) - 1/9
Therefore, Associative property is not true for subtraction.
