when we add and substract any number
* * * * *
"substract" is not a word, and in any case, subtraction is not commutative.
A binary operation ~, acting on a set, S, is commutative if for any two elements x, and y belonging to S,
x ~ y = y ~ x
Common binary commutative operations are addition and multiplication (of numbers) but not subtraction nor division.

The commutative property of a binary operator states that the order of the operands does not affect the result. Thus x ^ y = y ^ x where ^ is the binary operator. Addition and multiplication of numbers are two common operators that are commutative. Subtraction and division are two common ones that are not commutative.
Yes it is : a + b = b + a for all integers a and b. In fact , if an operation is called addition you can bet that it is commutative. It would be perverse to call an non-commutative operation addition.
No.noFalse...1-2 is not 2-1In mathematics, a binary operation is commutative if changing the order of the operands does not change the result.So lets test if subtraction is commutative. If it is then A - B = B - A.Picking arbitrary different whole numbers for A and B.37 - 12 = 12 - 37Evaluating both sides gives.25 = -25As this equality is false. we have proved that subtraction is NOT commutative!
5 - 3 = 2 3 - 5 = -2 2 is not the same as -2 so the operation is not commutative.
True. In mathematics, addition is a binary operation that combines two numbers to produce a sum. When you add 2 and 3 together, you get 5. This is a fundamental arithmetic concept that follows the commutative property of addition.
