Question 80

State whether the statement is True or False.

When we change the order of integers, their difference remains the same.

Answer 1

False

Subtraction of two integers is not commutative, i.e. a - b $\ne$ b - a for two integers a and b.

Example: 3 - (-5) = 3 + 5 = 8 is not equal to (-5) - 3 = -8
