What Are Related Addition Facts?
Addition facts are like a family - they all belong together!
Related addition facts use the same numbers but in different orders. If you know one fact, you actually know several others too! This makes learning math much easier.
How Addition Facts Are Related
1️⃣ Start with three numbers (like 3, 4, and 7)
2️⃣ These numbers can make different addition sentences
3️⃣ All these facts are related because they use the same numbers
Let's Explore Some Examples!
Example 1: The 3, 4, 7 Family
3 + 4 = 7
Example 2: The 5, 6, 11 Family
5 + 6 = 11
