We can write this property in the form of A + B = B + A.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\"><strong>For example<\/strong>,&nbsp; 2+4=4 + 2 = 6<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full eplus-wrapper\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"620\" height=\"304\" src=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/commutative-property-of-addition.png\" alt=\"Commutative Property of Addition.\" class=\"wp-image-40321\" title=\"Commutative Property of Addition.\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/commutative-property-of-addition.png 620w, https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/commutative-property-of-addition-300x147.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">Therefore, 2+4 is equal to 4 + 2 because both sentences give a sum of 6.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">This is called Commutative Property of Addition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"5-associative-property-of-addition\">Associative Property of Addition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">When we add three or more numbers, the sum is the same regardless of the grouping of the addends. It also means that when we add three different numbers, the result is not affected by the addition pattern followed.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">A +( B+C) = (A + B)+C<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">For example, (4 + 2) + 3 = 4 + (3 + 2)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full eplus-wrapper\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"620\" height=\"403\" src=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/associative-property-of-addition.png\" alt=\"Associative property of Addition\" class=\"wp-image-40322\" title=\"Associative property of Addition\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/associative-property-of-addition.png 620w, https:\/\/www.splashlearn.com\/math-vocabulary\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/associative-property-of-addition-300x195.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">From the example we see that the sum of the three numbers will remain the same, no matter how we group them. This property is called Associative Property of Addition.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"6-additive-identity-property-of-addition\">Additive Identity Property of Addition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">On adding zero to any number, the sum remains the original number. Adding 0 to a number does not change the value of the number. It is true for natural numbers, whole numbers, fractions, integers, and decimals.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">For example,&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">3 + 0 = 3<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">4.5 + 0 = 4.5<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">From the above example of the property of addition, we get that adding 0 to any number gives us the number itself. This is called the Additive Identity Property of 0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"7-additive-inverse-of-addition\">Additive Inverse of Addition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">Additive inverse of a number x is the number that, when added to x, yields zero. So, the additive inverse of a number x is \u2013x. Therefore, we can say that the additive inverse of a number is equal but opposite in sign to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">For example, 14 is a positive number and the additive inverse of 14 is -14.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">14 + -14 = 0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">\u200b\u200bFor example, -5 is a negative number and the additive inverse of -5 is 5.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">-5 + 5 = 0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading eplus-wrapper\" id=\"8-conclusion\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"eplus-wrapper\">In this lesson, we understood the five properties of addition. The addition properties in math make it easier to work with numbers by allowing you to regroup them so that an equation is easier to solve.
