Multiply Fractions with whole numbers We know that multiplication is repeated addition of the same number. So, multiplying a fraction with a whole number is equal to the whole number times the fraction is added. Let us understand with an example. Let us see the steps to multiply a given fraction with a whole number. […]
Read More →Addition of Like Fraction Addition of Fractions Fractions represents a part of a whole. The normal addition of numbers and the addition of fractions are different. A fraction has a numerator and a denominator which is separated by a bar. For example, 1/2, 4/3, 12/5, 24/7, 26/3. Let us see more about addition of like […]

We know that an improper fraction is a fraction whose numerator is greater than denominator. A mixed fraction is a combination of a whole number and a proper fraction. So, when converting […]
Read More →Equality – Addition Property Definition: Addition property of equality states that if using the same mathematical operation(same number is added) on both sides of an equation, then both sides of equation will remain equal. In above example, we add 3 on both sides. When we add 3 left side we get (9 – 3 + […]

This property states that, if we divide any number by 1, the result will be the number itself. Divisive Identity Property of Division The divisive identity property of division has […]
Read More →Property of Integers – Additive Identity What is Additive Identity Property The additive identity property is one of the important property of addition of numbers. Addition is process to bring two or more numbers together and make a new number. Thus, if we add zero to any number the result will be the same number. […]

Multiplication is Distributive Over Addition Lets consider a, b and c are three integers, by distributive Property: a x (b +c) = (a x b) + (a x c) = ab + ac […]
Read More →Integers – Associative Property Associative property of Addition The associative property of addition states, that we can add group of numbers in any way but result will remain the same. The way of grouping of numbers doesn’t matter, the answer will be the same. For any three integers, a, b and c, associative property of […]
Read More →Property of Integers – Commutative Addition The commutative property of addition states that, two integers can be added in any order, the result will be the same. Order of terms doesn’t matter, swapping of terms will not change the sum. Example: 9 + (-5) = 4 and (-5) + 9 = 4 So, 9 + […]
Read More →Closure Property of Integers Addition Closure property of integers under addition states that the sum of any two integers will always be an integer. Let us say for any two integers a and b, either positive or negative. When we add the two integers, their sum would be an integer i.e. sum of ‘a and […]
