What is commutative property of subtraction?

Commutative means things can move or commute. For example A+B=B+A But A-B does NOT equal B-A. The example A+B=B+A is an example of the commutative property of addition. More formally: An operation is commutative if you can change the order of the numbers involved without changing the result. Subtraction does NOT have a commutative property because you cannot change the order. Here is one last concrete example. 5-4=1 and 4-5 =-1 If you know about absolute value, then you might know that |5-4|=|4-5|=1 and in general |a-b|=|b-a|, but this does not mean that subtraction commutes.


How do you find eh absolute value of a fraction?

If the fraction is already positive, then it is also the absolute value. If the fraction is negative, just change the sign and it becomes the absolute value. Absolute value means the magnitude (value) of the fraction without any sign attribute.
