Can you give an example that shows that division is not a commutative property?
Commutative property in division Indeed I have the answer. One example would be: 8 divided by 4 = 2 is different from 4 divided by 8 = 0.5 This means that if you alter the order of the dividends, the result of the operation will change. That is why division is not a commutative property. not ha ha ha
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.
What does subtraction property of equality mean?
That means that subtracting the same value or expression from both sides of an equation is a valid operation, in the sense that the new equation will have the same solution set. The definitions of "addition property...", "multiplication property..." and "division property..." are similar; with the main caveat that you may not multiply or divide by zero.
