Vocabulary of addition

•
•
•
A+B=C
A and B are called Addends
C is called the Sum
Since A + B = B + A every time, we give it
a special name: commutative property.
• Since A + (B + C) = (A + B) + C every time,
we give it a special name: associative
property.

Estimation
• Get a QUICK answer that is close
but not exact!

382 - 147
Actual answer: 235
Ways to estimate:
380 - 150 = 230
400 - 150 - 20 = 230
375 - 150 = 225
385 - 145 = 240
390 - 140 = 250
You try some
• 45 + 87
• 391 + 1472
Estimation vs. Exact Answer
• Are the exact values of the addends
given?
• Is the exact value of the sum required?
• In general: changing values (like
population), measurement values (like
distance), and predictions (like 35%
chance of rain) are estimates
Rounding
• When you estimate, you are rounding to
the nearest ten, hundred, million, etc.
• If you round up, you are making an
overestimation.
• If you round down, you are making an
underestimation.
A problem:
• I am thinking of 3 numbers whose sum is
greater than 70.
• Look at each statement below. Mark it as
true or false. Be ready to explain why.
• All three numbers are greater than 20.
• If two of the number are less than 20, the
other must be greater than 20.

problem?
Explain why the child made the
mistake
• 341 + 287 is the same as
340 + 290 + 7 + 3
• 749 + 684 is the same as
700 + 600 + 49 + 1 + 84 + 16
• 322 + 468 is the same as
320 + 460
• Would the mistake have been made if
manipulatives had been used? Explain.
