Commutative law: The order of the operands doesn't change the result. For example, 4 + 3 = 3 + 4.
Associative: (1 + 2) + 3 = 1 + (2 + 3) - it doesn't matter which addition you do first.
Both laws are valid for addition, and for multiplication (as these are usually defined, with numbers. However, special "multiplications" have been defined that are not associative, or not commutative - for example, the cross product of vectors, or multiplication of matrices are not commutative.

An example of binary operation which is commutative but not associative?
NAND
Do the commutative and associative laws apply to vector subtraction?
No, changing order of vectors in subtraction give different resultant so commutative and associative laws do not apply to vector subtraction.
How are commutative and associative properties the same?
the switch the numbers arond
Property of multiplication?
There are many properties of multiplication. There is the associative property, identity property and the commutative property. There is also the zero product property.
How you do Multiplication property?
The multiplication properties are: Commutative property. Associative property. Distributive property. Identity property. And the Zero property of Multiplication.
What are commutative and associative properties of addition?
Commutative Law: a + b = b + a Associative Law: (a + b) + c = a + (b + c)
What happens to the product when you change the grouping of three factors in a multiplication problem?
Nothing. Multiplication is commutative and associative.Nothing. Multiplication is commutative and associative.Nothing. Multiplication is commutative and associative.Nothing. Multiplication is commutative and associative.
Is the equation 5(7 2)- 408?
Explain how you can use the commutative and associative prpoperties to add 19+28+81 mentally.
Are there commutative and associative properties for Subtraction and division?
No.
Is 3 plus 10 equals 10 plus 3 commutative or associative of distributive?
Associative
An example of binary operation which is commutative but not associative?
NAND
What is the properties under multiplication?
commutative, associative, distributive
Does commutative law apply in the operation of sets?
Both union and intersection are commutative, as well as associative.
Multiply by using distributive property n 4n 9?
You need the associative and commutative properties, but not the distributive property. n*4n*9 =n*(4n*9) (associative) = n*(9*4n) (commutative) = n*(36n) (associative) = 36n*n commutative = 36*n^2
Do the commutative and associative laws apply to vector subtraction?
No, changing order of vectors in subtraction give different resultant so commutative and associative laws do not apply to vector subtraction.
Among the three laws commutative associative and distributive which one is most frequently used in algebra?
commutative
What is the other property besides identity commutative or associative?
distributive
