为什么长整数和小数之间的相等不交换？

我在linqpad中运行以下代码：

    long x = long.MaxValue;
    decimal y = x;

    x.Dump();
    y.Dump();

    (x == y).Dump();
    (y == x).Dump();

    Object.Equals(x, y).Dump();
    Object.Equals(y, x).Dump();
    x.Equals(y).Dump();
    y.Equals(x).Dump();

它产生以下输出：

    9223372036854775807
    9223372036854775807
    True
    True
    False
    False
    False
    True

请注意最后两行：x.Equals（y）为false，但y.Equals（x）为true。因此，十进制认为自己等于具有相同值的long，但long并不认为自身等于具有相同值的十进制。

对这种行为有何解释？

更新：

我接受了李的回答。

我对此很好奇，并编写了这个小程序：

using System;
namespace TestConversion
{
  class Program
  {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
      long x = long.MaxValue;
      decimal y = x;

      Console.WriteLine(x);
      Console.WriteLine(y);

      Console.WriteLine(x == y);
      Console.WriteLine(y == x);

      Console.WriteLine(Object.Equals(x, y));
      Console.WriteLine(Object.Equals(y, x));
      Console.WriteLine(x.Equals(y));
      Console.WriteLine(y.Equals(x));
      Console.ReadKey();
    }
  }
}

然后我在IL中将其分解：

.method private hidebysig static void Main(string[] args) cil managed
{
  .entrypoint
  .maxstack 2
  .locals init (
    [0] int64 x,
    [1] valuetype [mscorlib]System.Decimal y)

您确实可以看到long值已转换为十进制。

谢谢你们！
