Solution

Commutative property:

The commutative property states that if we add or multiply two integers even if the position of the integers is changed the result remains unchanged.

Commutative Property of Addition
According to this property, if two integers are added and even if the position of the integers is interchanged, the result remains unchanged. Let a and b be any two integers then,

a+b=b+a

Commutative Property of Multiplication
According to this property, if two integers are multiplied and even if the position of the integers is interchanged, the result remains unchanged. Let a and b be any two integers then,

a×b=b×a.

Thus, the commutative property states that if two integers are added or multiplied and even if the position of the integers is changed the result remains unchanged.
