Find the quotients in each group below. is division commutative?

- 2 ÷ 3 = - 0.667 and 3 ÷ (- 2) = - 1.5.

- 12 ÷ (- 4) = 3 and - 4 ÷ (- 12) = 0.333.

16 ÷ 8 = 2 and 8 ÷ 16 = 0.5.

Division is not commutative.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the quotients in each group as given in the attachment.

- 2 ÷ 3 = - 0.667 and 3 ÷ (- 2) = - 1.5. So, - 2 ÷ 3 ≠ 3 ÷ (- 2)

- 12 ÷ (- 4) = 3 and - 4 ÷ (- 12) = 0.333. So, - 12 ÷ (- 4) ≠ - 4 ÷ (- 12)

Now, 16 ÷ 8 = 2 and 8 ÷ 16 = 0.5. So, 16 ÷ 8 ≠ 8 ÷ 16

From the above examples, we can say division is not commutative. (Answer)

$9.89

step-by-step explanation:

9.90 = p x .06 x .25 (3/12 changed to a decimal)

9.90 = p x 0.015

9.90 - 0.015 = p

9.89 = p

hello :

by applying the distributive property :

6 × 4.3 = 6 × ( 4 + 0.3 )

            =   (6 ×   4) + (6 ×   0.3)

            = 24 + 1.8

6 × 4.3 = 25.8
