Define commutative property of addition of integers with the help of an example. [2 MARKS]

Open in App
Solution

Definition: 1 Mark
Example: 1 Mark

The word "commutative" comes from "commute" or "move around", so the Commutative Property is the one that refers to moving stuff around.
So, if we add any number of integers in any order the result will be the same.

For addition, the rule is "a + b = b + a".

Example
2 + 3 = 3 + 2 = 5.
