Arithmetic properties (understanding)

Draw lines from the definitions (/3) to the correct property name, and then also lines to the correct example
set of numbers/equations that reflect this property (/3):

DEFINITION PROPERTY NAME EXAMPLE

1. Relates to the grouping of

numbers in arithmetic
equations. Commutative E.g. 2(3 + 4) = 2x3 + 2x4.
property

2. Refers to how moving

positions and order do not
affect the result. Associative
property E.g. 4 +5 = 9, and 5 + 4 = 9

3. Refers to how when

multiplying with bracket
operations, and that Distributive
multiplication (x) comes property E.g. 2 + (4 + 4) = (2+ 3) + 4
before addition (+).

Do you know the order of operations when doing algebra and arithmetic? The following acronym – BODMAS
stands for different operations, some of which need to come before others. Can you complete 5 of the 6
letters shown? (/5)

1. B ............................................................. (/1)

2. O Order of powers, roots

3. D ............................................................ (/1)

Arithmetic properties
Solve these problems as algebraic equations:

1. Minh Chau is thinking of a number. She minuses 12 from her number, and then divides by 3, and the
result = 3. What is the equation (/1) and number is she thinking (/1)?

/2

2. Duy Khang knows the answer to a math problem the Teacher is doing on the board. In order to get
the answer 7.5, the Teacher must add three, and divide by four. Duy Khang writes the equation (/1)
and the Teacher’s number (/1):

/2
3. Minh Anh also thinks she can do this exercise, so she thinks up a number. She reluctantly gives the
hint that her number, when adding six, minusing seven, and adding three, and then multiplying the
result by 5, her answer is 55.
