No, division is not commutative, because a/b does not necessarily equal b/a.
A simple proof by counter-example:
Assuming a = 10 and b = 5, we test the property of commutativity with:
10/5 = 2
5/10 = 0.5.
This is an example of division failing to be commutative. In general, for a/b to equal b/a, a must equal b. For all other pairs (a,b) the property fails.

No.
Is there a commutative property of division?
There is no commutative property of division. Commutative means to exchange places of numbers. If you exchange the place of numbers in a division problem, you would affect the answer. So, commutative property applies only to addition or multiplication.Not really; for example, 2/1 = 2, and 1/2 = 0.5. However, you can convert any division into a multiplication, and apply the commutative property of multiplication. For example, 6 / 3 = 6 x (1/2), which is the same as (1/2) x 6.
