Yes. Both the commutative property of addition, and the commutative property of multiplication, works:* For integers
* For rational numbers (i.e., fractions)
* For any real numbers
* For complex numbers

Does the Commutative Property apply to addition of fractions?
Yes, it applies to even multiplication of fractions and rational and irrational numbers.
Does the commutative property work on division?
No, it does not.
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.
What operations dont work for commutative property?
Subtraction, division
Why does adding the numbers in any order work?
it is the commutative property of addition

Why doesn't the commutative property work for subtraction?
you can not use commutative property for subtraction because if you switch them around you will end up with a negative number.
What operations dont work for commutative property?
Subtraction, division
Which property allows you to regroup addends?
The commutative property of addition and the commutative property of multiplication.
The Commutative Property does not work for which operations?
Addition and multiplication
Why does adding the numbers in any order work?
it is the commutative property of addition
What is commutative distributed property mean?

What multiplication property is used for 53 X's 6 equals 6 X's 53?
Commutative property. To remember what the commutative property does, think of the word: commute.A person commutes to work each day. He changes his position (he's at home, then he's at work).In the commutative property of multiplication, the terms can move around or change position and the result will be the same.
What is the property of 6 plus y equals y plus 6?
That's called the commutative property.That's called the commutative property.That's called the commutative property.That's called the commutative property.
What is the answer of A plus B using the commutative property?
A + B = B + A (commutative property)
