Computation on a Number Line
One way to find the sums for each of the following addition problems is to use a number line.
- \(10+23=\)
- \(1+1.3=\)
- \(0.8+1.7=\)
Think about the different strategies that could be used to find these sums. What strategy would you use? How many ways can you find to add them?
Use a number line to show the sums. Why might a number line be a good tool for these problems?
