Front

What is the Commutative Property of Addition?

Back

The Commutative Property of Addition states that changing the order of the addends does not change the sum. For example, a + b = b + a.

Front

What is the Addition Property of Equality?

Back

The Addition Property of Equality states that if you add the same number to both sides of an equation, the two sides remain equal.

Front

What is the Subtraction Property of Equality?

Back

The Subtraction Property of Equality states that if you subtract the same number from both sides of an equation, the two sides remain equal.
