Question

Verify commutative property of addition by using the numbers 34,568 and 23,111 Also check it for substraction . Write your observation .​

Answer 1

Answer:

COMMUTATIVE PROPERTY OF ADDITION:

34,568+23,111 = 57,679

23,111+34,568 = 57,679

Hence, verified.

COMMUTATIVE PROPERTY OF SUBTRACTION:

34,568-23,111 = 11457

23,111-34,568 = (-11457)

∴ Not commutative under subtraction.

My observation-

Commutative property doesn't hold true under subtraction for whole numbers but holds true under addition for whole numbers and integers. Commutative property does hold true under subtraction for integers.
