Solution

The correct options are
A
Addition

C
Multiplication

Addition and multiplication are commutative for integers.

If $a$ and $b$ are integers, then
$a + b = b + a$
$a \times b = b \times a$

On the other hand, subtraction and division are not commutative for integers.

If $a$ and $b$ are integers, then
$a - b \neq b - a$
$a \div b \neq b \div a$
