Solution

The correct option is B subtraction
Commutative property of integers states that
a + b = b + a in case of addition.
But in case of subtraction, commutative property of integers is invalid, as
a - b b - a
Example : Let a = 3 and b = 5
a - b = 3 - 5 = -2
b - a = 5 - 3 = 2
-2 2
Hence, in case of subtraction of integers commutative property is invalid.
