contents Zero-divisor graphs of commutative rings are well-represented in the literature. In this paper, we consider dominating sets, total dominating sets, domination numbers and total domination numbers of zero-divisor graphs. We determine the domination and total domination numbers of zero-divisor graphs are equal for all zero-divisor graphs of commutative rings except for $\mathbb{Z}_2 \times D$ in which $D$ is a domain. In this case, $γ(Γ(\mathbb{Z}_2 \times D)) = 1$ and $γ_t(Γ(\mathbb{Z}_2 \times D)) = 2$.

Zero-divisor graphs of commutative rings are well-represented in the literature. In this paper, we consider dominating sets, total dominating sets, domination numbers and total domination numbers of zero-divisor graphs. We determine the domination and total domination numbers of zero-divisor graphs are equal for all zero-divisor graphs of commutative rings except for $\mathbb{Z}_2 \times D$ in which $D$ is a domain. In this case, $γ(Γ(\mathbb{Z}_2 \times D)) = 1$ and $γ_t(Γ(\mathbb{Z}_2 \times D)) = 2$.
