Are subtraction and division commutative and associative?
Subtraction is commutative... in a way. You can convert any subtraction to an addition. 7 - 2 is NOT the same as 2 - 7. However, when turning the terms around, you may keep the sign, so that 7 - 2 is the same as -2 + 7. This is justified by the commutative law of addition. Similarly with division: 10 / 2 is not the same as 2 / 10, but you can convert 10 / 2 into (1/2) x 10.
