The commutative property for any two numbers, X and Y, is
X # Y = Y # X
where # can stand for addition or multiplication.
Whether the numbers are written as integers, rational fractions, irrationals or decimal numbers is totally irrelevant.

The commutative property of addition says that it does not matter in which order you add the numbers, you will get the same result. For example, 5 + 3 = 8 and 3 + 5 = 8.
a+b=
7 x 15 = 15 x 7 Basically, commutative property of multiplication states that the order in which they are multiplied does not matter.
×4 = 4×6 what is the property o that we were using?
You need the associative and commutative properties, but not the distributive property. n*4n*9 =n*(4n*9) (associative) = n*(9*4n) (commutative) = n*(36n) (associative) = 36n*n commutative = 36*n^2
