Verify commutative property of addition for the following pairs of rational numbers -4/3 and 3/7

Commutative property of addition of rational numbers states that the sum of 2 rational numbers does not depend on the order in which they are added.If a and b are 2 rational numbers, then a + b = b + a.Now, the given rational numbers are -43 and 37.Now, -43 + 37 = -28+921 = -1921Now, 37 + -43 = 9+-2821 = -1921Hence, commutative law is verified.
