Adding and Subtracting Mixed Numbers

The video tutorial covers the addition and subtraction of mixed numbers, focusing on using visual models and number lines. It begins with an introduction to the concept of mixed numbers and their components. The tutorial then demonstrates how to add mixed numbers using visual models, followed by a detailed explanation of using a number line for the same purpose. Alternative strategies for adding mixed numbers are also explored, providing multiple methods for learners to understand and apply the concepts effectively.
