Exploring the Properties of Addition

This video tutorial on Math Fanatics covers the properties of addition, including commutative, associative, and identity properties. It begins with a review of key terms like addends and sum, followed by examples and explanations of each property. The video includes practice questions to reinforce learning and concludes with a recap of the properties discussed.

What do we call the numbers that are combined in an addition operation?

• Addends

• Sum

• Factors

• Products

In the equation 45 + 12 = 57, what is the term for the number 57?

• Difference

• Sum

• Product

• Addend

If you change the order of the addends in an addition problem, what property does this demonstrate?

• Commutative Property

• Associative Property

• Identity Property

• Distributive Property

Marge and Farah baked the same number of cupcakes even though the order of their baking days was different. Which property of addition does this illustrate?

• Identity Property

• Distributive Property

• Commutative Property
