what is communicative property???

what is distributive property???

Hi!
Here is the answer to your query.
 
 Let a and b be two whole numbers.
Commutative property: 
a + b = b + a  (Commutative property of addition)
a × b = b × a   (Commutative property of multiplication)
Example: Let us take a = 2 and b= 3.
2 + 3 = 3 + 2 and 2 × 3 = 3 × 2
 
Let a, b and c be three whole numbers.
Distributive property:
a × (b + c) = a × b + a × c   (Distributive property for multiplication over addition)
a × (b c) = a × b a × c   (Distributive property for multiplication over subtraction)
Example:
Let us take a = 2, b = 3 and c = 5.
According to distributive property of integers the value of the expression 2 × (3 + 5) must be equal to the expression 2 × 3 + 2 × 5 and the value of the expression 2 × (3 – 5) must be equal to the value of the expression 2 × 3 – 2 × 5.
 These can be verified as,
2 × (3 + 5) = 2 × 8 = 16
2 × 3 = 6 and 2 × 5 = 10
∴ 2 × 3 + 2 × 5 = 6 + 10 = 16
Thus, 2 × (3 + 5) = 2 × 3 + 2 × 5
 
Cheers!

it  is  not  coominicative  it  is  commutative

2 x 3 =3 x  2 = 6.
