Commutative Property of Rational Numbers

Rational numbers follow Commutative Property rule, according to which we can say that if we have two Rational Numbers a/b and c/d then addition of that fallows commutative additions. The commutative addition can be represented as a/b +c/d =c/d +a/b. 

It will be more be clear with the help of an example:

Add 2/5 and 4/5

Now, we check that above rational number follow commutative property or not

Firstly, we will take left hand side,

Let a=2/5 and b=4/5,

According to commutative property,

a+b= b+a,

2/5 + 4/5,

6/5 now taking right hand side,

4/5 +2/5,

6/5,

Commutative Property of Multiplication refers that two numbers or rational numbers can be multiplied in either order. In mathematical manner we can represent this property as : a x b = b x a

Here is an example which further help you to understand this concept:

4/5 X 5/2 = 5/2 x 4/5

2 = 2

L.H.S = R.H.S

From, the above examples we can say that rational numbers follow commutative property as left hand side =right hand side.
