Addition is the mathematical operation of combining two or more numbers to get a total.

The commutative property states that changing the order of the addends does not change the sum (e.g., a + b = b + a).

The associative property states that the way in which numbers are grouped in addition does not change the sum (e.g., (a + b) + c = a + (b + c)).

The identity property states that adding zero to any number does not change the number (e.g., a + 0 = a).

A number line is a visual representation of numbers in a straight line, used to illustrate addition by moving to the right for positive sums.
