    What you meant was the "commutative" property.

    So we can say that when adding:

    "Commutative means that the order does not make any difference in the result."

    Example:

    5 + 6 = 6 + 5

    a + b = b + a

    The commutative property does not hold for subtraction.

    Example:

    4 - 1 ≠ 1 - 4

    a - b ≠ b - a

    Ok, now does the commutative property hold true for multiplication?

    2 x 3 = 3 x 2

    2 x 3 x 4 = 4 x 3 x 2

    Yes.

    What about division?

    12 : 4 ≠ 4 : 12

    The commutative property does not hold for division.
