associative property of addition. The property that states that when adding three or more real numbers, the sum is always the same regardless of their grouping. That is,(a + b) + c = a + (b + c) Related Terms: associative property of multiplication, commutative, distributive. English | Espaol.
Addition or subtraction of two whole numbers with whole number answers, and with sum or minuend in the range 0-5, 0-10, 0-20, or 0-100, respectively. Example: 8 + 2 = 10 is an addition within 10, 14 â 5 = 9 is a subtraction within 20, and 55 â 18 = 37 is a subtraction within 100. Additive inverses. Two numbers whose sum is 0 are additive inverses of one another. Example: 3/4 and â 3/4 are additive inverses of one another because 3/4 + (- 3/4) = (- 3/4) + 3/4 = 0.
