Question

For any two integers x and y, which of the following suggests that operation of addition is commutative ?

Options

• x + y = y + x

• x + y > x

• x – y = y – x

• x × y = y × x

Let a and b be two integers, then in commutative property a + b = b + a

Here, x and y are integers.

Then, x + y = y + x
