4: Properties of Addition

After using this module, you are expected to:


1. enumerate the different properties of
addition
2. apply the properties in adding integers.

EXPLORE Your Understanding

Let us move on in our exploratory activities that will


activities tha introduce you the basic concepts of properties of addition.

Activity 1

FIRM UP Your Understanding

Let’s move on! Enjoy learning more and


more about properties of addition. Here are
other activities that will help you.

Activity 2

In the addition of integers, there are certain properties that we need to know.
Study the examples below.

Example 1
Find: a) (+8) + (10) = _____
b) (10) + (+8) = _____

Notice that the order of the addends in (a) is reversed in (b). Did the answer
change?
This example illustrates the Commutative Property of Addition (CPA), where
for any integer a and b, a + b = b + a.

Example 2

Find: a) (5 + 3) + 2 = _____


b) 5 + (3 + 2) = _____

Again, notice that the grouping of the addends in (a) is changed in (b). Did
the answer change?
This example illustrates the Associative Property of Addition (APA), where for
any integer a, b, and c, (a + b) + c = a + (b + c).

Example 3

Find: a) 0 + 7 = _____
b) 15 + 0 = _____

What is the sum of zero and any number? This example illustrates the
Identity Property of Addition (IPA), where 0 is called the identity element of addition.
Hence, a + 0 = 0 + a = a

2
Example 4

Find: a) 8 + (8) = _____


b) 23 + _____ = 0

What did you notice with the sum of the numbers? What do you observe
about addends whose sum is zero (0)?

Two numbers that add up to zero are called additive inverses of each other.
This property is called the Additive-Inverse Property (AIP), that is for any integer a,
a + (a) = 0.

Example 5

Find: a) 12 (5 + 8) = ______
b) 12 (5) = _____
c) 12 (8) = _____
d) 25 (12 – 2) = _____
e) 25 (12) = _____
f) 25 (2) _____

How do you compare the sum of (b) and (c) above to (a)?
Thus, we have:

12 (5 + 8) = 12 (5) + 12 (8)
12 (13) = 60 + 96
156 = 156

As to the statements in (d), (e), and (f), what mathematical statement can you
make?
Hence,
25 (12 – 2) = 25 (12) – 25 (2)
25 (10) = 300 – 50
250 = 250

This example illustrates the Distributive Property of Multiplication over


Addition (DPMA) that is, for any integer a, b, c; a ( b + c) = ab + ac.

ordering integers.

Activity 3

Determine the property illustrated in each item below.


1. 6 + (-6) = 0
2. 12 + (-8) = (-8) + 12
3. 0 + (-15) = -15
4. -9 + [8 + (-2)] = [-9 + 8] + (-2)
5. 4 (3 – 9) = 4(3) – 4(9)

Activity 4

Determine the property illustrated in each of the following.

1. 7 + (2) = (2) + 7
2. 19 + 19 = 0
3. 12 + [(– 3) + 29] = [12 + (3)] + 29
4. 15 + [8 + (4)] = [8 + (4)] + 15
5. (2 + 3) + (9) = 2 + [3 + (9)]
6. 0 + (37) = 37
7. (6 + 0) – 7 = 6 – 7
8. 7 + 3 + (3) = 7
9. 13 (2 – 6) = 13 (2) – 13(6)
10. (4 + 3)(5 + 6) = (4 + 3)(5) + (4 + 3)(6)
