Explanation :- Subtraction is not commutative for integers, this means that when we change the order of integers in subtraction expression, the result also changes. Commutative Property for Subtraction of Integers can be further understood with the help of following examples :- Example 1 = Explain Commutative Property for subtraction of integers (-7) & (-17) ? Answer = Given Integers = (-7), (-17) and their two orders are as follows :- Order 1 = (-7) - (-17) = 10 Order 2 = (-17) - (-7) = (-10) As, in both the orders the result is different. So, we can say that Subtraction is not commutative for integers. Example 2 = Explain Commutative Property for subtraction of integers (-3) & (-9) ? Answer = Given Integers = (-3), (-9) and their two orders are as follows :- Order 1 = (-3) - (-9) = 6 Order 2 = (-9) - (-3) = (-6) As, in both the orders the result is different. So, we can say that Subtraction is not commutative for integers. Example 3 = Explain Commutative Property for subtraction of integers (-20) & (-30) ? Answer = Given Integers = (-20), (-30) and their two orders are as follows :- Order 1 = (-20) - (-30) = 10 Order 2 = (-30) - (-20) = (-10) As, in both the orders the result is different. So, we can say that Subtraction is not commutative for integers. Study More Solved Questions / Examples Explain subtraction is not commutative for integers; with the help of two positive integers.
