Let be a Banach algebra and , a fixed integer. The main objective of this paper is to talk about the commutativity of Banach algebras via its projections. Precisely, we prove that if is a prime Banach algebra admitting a continuous projection with image in such that , the nonvoid open subset of , then is commutative and is the identity mapping on . Apart from proving some other results, as an application we prove that, a normed algebra is commutative iff the interior of its center is non-empty. Furthermore, we provide some examples to show that the assumed restrictions cannot be relaxed. Finally, we conclude our paper with a direction for further research.
