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.
Why 5x4 would not work as commutative property?
Not sure what "would not work" in this case. The corresponding commutative property states that 5x4 is the same as 4x5.
Is 7 divided by x equals x divided by 7 a commutative property associative property distributive property or none of these the equation is incorrect?
no the equation is not correct, the only way it would be correct is if x=7 which would be a commutative property
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.
