Addition means joining things together. It can also be defined as Combining collections of objects together into a larger collection is Addition.It is represented by the ‘+’ sign.
We can add the integers using the number line.
This can be written in different ways:
Here the number or digit 3 and 2 are called Addends or Operands
The plus or "+" is called operator.
whereas the number 5 is the sum.
Sum : When numbers are added together, the answer is called sum. The sum tells how many there are in all.
same way
7 + 3 = 10
Addends: 7, 3
Sum: 10
5 + 5
Take 5 and then add 5 to it.
= 10
8 + 6
We will count 6 after 8. So we will get 14.
8 + 6 = 14
255 + 211
Arrange vertically as shown in the table
5 U + 1 U= 6 U
5 T + 1 T = 6 T
2 H + 2 H = 4 H
255 + 211 = 466
Lisa had 6 pencils.
She bought 7 pencils.
So that,7 added to 6.
Count 6 after 7
7 + 6 = 13
Matt had 5 marbles. Elizabeth gave him more 9 marbles.
So that, 9 added to 5.
5 + 9
Count 9 after 5
9 + 5 = 14
Arrange vertically as shown in the table
0 U + 0 U= 0U
5T + 3T = 8T
1H + 2H = 3H
100 + 50 + 230 = 380
To find total children in the school we have to add the numbers of boys and girls.
340 + 250
Arrange vertically as shown in the table
0U + 0U= 0U
4T + 5T = 9T
3H + 2H = 5H
340 + 250= 590
Arrange vertically as shown in the table
5U + 9U = 14U
14U = 1T 4U
We carry over 1T to the next column.
2T + 1T = 3T
25+9= 34
9U + 6U = 15U
15U = 1T 5U
We carry over 1T to the next column.
9T + 6T + 1T = 16T
16T = 1H 6T
We carry over 1H to the next column.
5H + 3H + 1H = 9H
599 + 366 = 965
216 + 85
Arrange vertically as shown in the table
6U + 5U = 11U
11U = 1T 1U
We carry over 1T to the next column.
1T + 8T + 1T = 10T
10T = 1H 0T
We carry over 1H to the next column.
2H + 1H = 3H
216 + 85 = 301
To find the total cost of these articles we have to add the cost of these articles.
7800 + 5000
Arrange vertically as shown in the table
0U + 0U = 0U
0T + 0T = 0T
8H + 0H = 8H
7TH + 5TH = 12 TH
7800 + 5000 = 12800
If we reverse the terms in a sum left-to-right, and the result is the same as the last one.It is called commutativity of addition.
So that, if a and b are any two numbers, then a + b = b + a
Let us say 4 stars and 3 stars
Let us count with 8 red blocks and 7 green blocks.
8 red blocks + 7 green blocks = 15 blocks
Let us count with 7 red blocks and 8 green blocks.
7 red blocks + 8 green blocks = 15 blocks
So that, 8 red blocks + 7 green blocks = 7 red blocks+ 8 green blocks = 15 blocks
Hence, 8+7=7+8
For any three numbers a, b, and c, (a + b) + c = a + (b + c).
If we say, (1 + 3) + 4=?
Let us count with 8 red blocks and 7 green blocks. And 2 blue blocks.
(8 red blocks + 7 green blocks) + 2 blue blocks = 17 blocks
Now 8 + (7 + 2)
Let us count with 8 red blocks. And 7 green blocks and 2 blue blocks.
(8 red blocks) + (7 green blocks + 2 blue blocks) = 17 blocks
So that, (8 red blocks + 7 green blocks) + 2 blue blocks =
(8 red blocks) + (7 green blocks + 2 blue blocks) = 17 blocks
Hence, (8 + 7) + 2 = 8 + (7 + 2)
When we add zero to any number, the quantity does not change. For any a, a + 0 = 0 + a = a.
Let we say, 5 + 0 = ?
- Count 0 after five. 5 + 0 = 5
- If we say, 0 + 5. Count 5 after zero. 0+5= 5
- So that, 5 + 0 = 0 + 5 = 5
If we add two numbers any order we get the same answer.
Let us say, 4 + 6 = 10. As well as 6+4=10.
So that, 4, 6 and 10 are the members of the fact family.
A doubles fact is one in which the two addends are the same for e.g. 5 + 5 = 10
A doubles + 1 fact is one in which one addend is only one more than the other addend for e.g. 5 + 6 = 11
