Question

10/15#2) OZ#101-Number Prorts (ACC Math)POSSIEThe commutative property does not hold for division. Write 2 examples to prove this.

Answer 1

Commutative property holds for addition and multiplication, this property states that the order will not affect the result.

Examples for addition and multiplication

5 + 7 = 12 or 7 + 5 = 12 The result is the same

9 x 3 = 27 3 x 9 = 27

For division

20/10 = 2

10/20 = 0.5 The result is different

150/50 = 3

50/150 = 0.333 The result is different

So, this property does not hold for division.
