  2. Adding and Subtracting Decimals Lesson 1-5

  3. The Basic Steps: • Line up the numbers by the decimal point. • Fill in missing places with zeroes. • Add or subtract.

  4. Addition Properties Commutative Property of Addition: Numbers can be added in any order. Example: 5+3=3+5 Associative Property of Addition: Numbers can be grouped in any way. Example: (7+3) + 5 = 7 + (3+5) Identity Property of Addition: The sum of any number and zero is that number. Example: 18 + 0 = 18

  5. Mental Math • Addition properties can be used to quickly find sums. • Example: What is 52 + 12.4 + 48? • We can use an addition property to quickly add this. • First, change the order: 52 + 48 + 12.4 ________________ property. • Then, group the first two addends together: (52 + 48) + 12.4________________ property • 100 + 12.4 = 112.4 commutative associative

  6. Example: 28.9 + 13.31 This can estimate to 30 + 13, which is 43. (Compatible numbers) 28.9 0 + 13.31 42.21 The answer is close to the estimate.

  7. Subtracting • The addition properties do not work for subtraction. • Estimate and subtract to find what the answer is close to. • Subtract to find the real answer.

  8. Subtracting Across Zeroes • If you have several zeroes in a row, and you need to borrow, go to the first digit that is not zero, and borrow. • All middle zeroes become 9’s. • The final zero becomes 10.

  9. Example: 15 – 9.372 0 1 4 9 9 10 .000 15 - 9.372 5 . 6 2 8
