Study Notes
Mathematics with Arabic Numbers
Addition Facts
-
Commutative Property: The order of addends does not change the result.
- Example: 2 + 3 = 3 + 2 = 5
-
Associative Property: The order in which numbers are added does not change the result.
- Example: (2 + 3) + 4 = 2 + (3 + 4) = 9
-
Distributive Property: A number can be distributed to each addend.
- Example: 2 + (3 + 4) = 2 + 3 + 4 = 9
-
Basic Addition Facts: Memorized addition facts that can be recalled quickly.
- Examples: 1 + 1 = 2, 2 + 2 = 4, 5 + 0 = 5
Subtraction Facts
-
Related Addition Facts: Subtraction can be thought of as the inverse operation of addition.
- Example: 5 - 2 = ? can be solved by finding the missing addend: 2 + ? = 5
-
Counting Back: Subtracting a number from a starting point by counting back.
- Example: 8 - 3 = ? can be solved by counting back 3 from 8: 8, 7, 6, 5
-
Basic Subtraction Facts: Memorized subtraction facts that can be recalled quickly.
- Examples: 5 - 0 = 5, 10 - 2 = 8, 7 - 1 = 6

Properties of Addition
- The Commutative Property of Addition states that the order of addends does not change the result, ensuring that the outcome remains the same regardless of the order in which numbers are added.
- The Associative Property of Addition allows for the flexibility to add numbers in any order, as the result remains unchanged, making it a useful property for simplifying complex calculations.
- The Distributive Property of Addition enables the distribution of a number to each addend, facilitating the calculation of expressions with multiple terms.
Basic Addition Facts
- Memorized basic addition facts, such as 1 + 1 = 2, 2 + 2 = 4, and 5 + 0 = 5, are essential for quick and accurate calculations.
