What is associative property of addition?

Social Studies

ExtremeBDS [4]3 years ago

The associative property of addition states that if we add more than two numbers, the grouping of the addends does not change the sum. Let's look at an example.

1 + (2 + 4) = (1 + 2) + 4

On the left side of the problem, the order of operations tells us that we must simplify inside the parentheses first. When we do this, we will get 6 and if we add 1 we get 7.

On the right side of the problem, we musty also follow the order of operations and do the operation inside the parentheses first. In the parentheses, we have 1 + 2 which equals 3 and if we add 4 to that we get 7.

The sum is the same on both sides of the problem even though we grouped the addends differently.

In general terms, the associative property of addition can be written as followed.

a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c

This is where a, b, and c represent any numbers.

The associative property of addition means you can "group" the numbers how ever you want and it will give you the same answer

3+9+2 = (2+3)+9 

(8+9)+(6+1) = (9+1)+(6+8)

Which statement best describes the populations of countries in the Sahel?
PolarNik [594]

The Sahel part of Africa includes (from west to east) parts of northern Senegal, southern Mauritania, central Mali, northern Burkina Faso, the extreme south of Algeria, Niger, the extreme north of Nigeria, central Chad, central and southern Sudan, the extreme north of South Sudan, Eritrea, Cameroon, Central African Republic and the extreme north of Ethiopia  

Traditionally, most of the people in the Sahel have been semi-nomads, farming and raising livestock in a system of transhumance, which is probably the most sustainable way of utilizing the Sahel. The difference between the dry North with higher levels of soil nutrients and the wetter South with more vegetation, is utilized by having the herds graze on high quality feed in the North during the wet season, and trek several hundred kilometers to the South to graze on more abundant, but less nutritious feed during the dry period
