May your day be filled with no problems, but if there is a problem, may you find the solution!
There are four basic operations of arithmetic:
- addition
- subtraction
- multiplication
- division
Addition is adding two or more numbers together to find the total sum of the numbers.
There are three parts to addition problems:
- the addends
- the plus (+) and equal (=) signs
- the sum
The addends are the two or more numbers you are adding together. The plus sign (+) is used to let us know that we are adding the addends together, and the equal sign (=) is used to let us know the sum of the addends. The sum is the final answer to the addition problem.
Robert Recorde was a mathematician
and physician who, in 1557, invented the equals (=) sign and introduced the plus (+) sign to English speakers.
Which one of the four basic operations of math is your
favorite?
