Mention the commutativity, associative and distributive properties of rational numbers. Also, check a × b = b × a and a + b = b + a for a = ½ and b = ¾

Dear Student

Commutative property:
For any two rational numbers a and b, a + b = b + a.
For any two rational numbers a and b, a × b = b × a.
Associative Property:
For any three rational numbers a, b and c,
(a + b) + c = a + (b + c)
Distributive property states that for any three numbers x, y and z,
x × ( y + z ) = (x × y) + ( x × z)

a*b = b*a
a*b = ½ * ¾ = 3/8
b*a = ¾ * ½ = 3/8
a + b = ¾ + ½ = 5/4
b + a = ½ + ¾ = 5/4

Thanks
