Commutative Properties of Numbers
The commutative property is the property where the exchange position of a number will have the same value.
This property only applies to addition and multiplication operations.
For more details see the following example:
Example 1:
1+2+3=3+2+1=3+1+2=2+1+3=2+3+1=1+3+2.
Example 2:
5 - 2 = - 2 + 5 (-2 is a negative number).
Example 3:
3 x 5 = 5 x 3
Example 4:
-5 x 3 = -3 x 5 (the - sign is concatenated with the invisible x operation). It can be written: -5 x 3 = - x 5 x 3.
