problems.
Properties of Numbers
Lesson 2-1
Pre-Algebra
New Terms:
Commutative Properties – changing the order of the values you are adding
or multiplying does not change the sum or product.
Associative Properties – Changing the grouping of the values you are
adding or multiplying does not change the sum or product.
Additive Identity – when you add a number to 0, the sum equals the original
number.
Multiplicative Identity – when you multiply a number to 1, the product
equals the original number.
Properties of Numbers
Lesson 2-1
Additional Examples
Carlos spent $42 on his golf game. He then bought
a bottle of water for $2 and a chef’s salad for $8. What was
the total cost for his golf game and meal?
You can use the Associative Property of Addition to find the total
cost in two different ways.
42 + (2 + 8) = 42 + 10 = 52 Add 2 and 8 first.
(42 + 2) + 8 = 44 + 8 = 52 Add 42 and 2 first.
Carlos’s total cost was $52.
