Solution

The correct option is C a+b = b+a
The above cases represent the commutative property.

And commutative property holds only for addition and multiplication of integers.

The subtraction and division of integers, does not follow the commutative property.

Example:
$2 - 3 \neq 3 - 2 - 1 \neq 1$

Similarly,
$2 \div 3 \neq 3 \div 2 0.66 \neq 1.5$
