commutative means the numbers can be put in a different order and equal the same thing such as 3+4=7 and 4+3=7. the subtraction problem 7-3=4 is not commutative because if u switch the 3 and 7 the equation is 3-7=-4. the numbers are in a different order but you dont get the same answer so its not commutative
That's not possible because when you subtract 4-(2-3)=5 and (4-2)-3
(5-3)-1 = 2-1 = 1
5-(3-1) = 5-2 = 3
Clearly this is not "same difference".

What is subtraction commutative or associative?
Subtraction is neither commutative property or association property because commutative property of multiplication is when you change the order of the factors the product stays the same and it isn't associated property because you can change the grouping of the factors the product stays the same you can't do that first attraction it wouldn't work it would be a negative zero.
Can you use the Associative Property with subtraction and division?
No you can not use subtraction or division in the associative property.
Is there an associative property of subtraction?
No it can not.
Can you have subtraction in associative property of multiplication?
No, you cannot have subtraction in the associative property of multiplication because the associative property of multiplication is about multiplication. More to the point, if you're asking whether subtraction is associative, the answer is still no. (2 - 3) - 4 does not equal 2 - (3 - 4)
Is the operation of subtraction associative?
yes
Does associative property work with subtraction?
no it does not
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 is subtraction rational numbers different from adding?
Subtraction is not commutative nor associative.
Is Subtraction Of Integers Associative?
Type your answer here... no
Are there commutative and associative properties for Subtraction and division?
No.
Why does associative property does not work with subtraction?
Associative property does not work with subtraction because not all numbers can be subtracted and have the same results............
Is subtraction and division associative?
No, only multiplication and addition are.
