2 x 8=8 x 2
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
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.
Not sure what "would not work" in this case. The corresponding commutative property states that 5x4 is the same as 4x5.
no the equation is not correct, the only way it would be correct is if x=7 which would be a commutative property

The commutative property for addition is a + b = b + a

The commutative property
One counterexample should be enough to disprove such an assumption. For example, 2 / 1 = 2, while 1 / 2 = 0.5. The two are not the same, ergo, the commutative property doesn't apply.Let's say that there is no statement or theorem in the sense that every operation is commutative; some are, some aren't. By the way, you can convert any division into a multiplication - in which case it IS commutative. For example, 5 divided by 2 is the same as 5 times 1/2; the multiplication 5 times 1/2 is the same as 1/2 times 5.
The Commutative property just says that it doesn't matter what order the numbers are in, you will get the same answer. Examples would be 1+5=6 and 5+1=6 34+20+1=55 and 20+1+34=55
The commutative property of multiplication says that numbers can be multiplied in any order and the result will still be the same. An example would be 7 x 6 and 6 x 7 both equaling 42.
the property says that a+b+c is the same as a+c+b and it is the commutative property of addition.
I believe you are speaking of the commutative property of multiplication, and it simply states that the order in which two "numbers" (Can be variables) are multiplied does not matter, and that you will achieve the same result. An example would be: 2X3= 6And3X2=6
Mathematical properties explain the way that numbers work. By knowing the properties, they make it easier to work with. An example would be the Commutative property of multiplication, which says that the answer to a multiplication question is the same no matter how the numbers are multiplied together, such as 3x2 or 2x3 both equaling 6.
