Breaking apart, also known as decomposition, is a mathematical strategy used to simplify complex calculations by breaking numbers into easier-to-manage parts. This method is commonly used in arithmetic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. By breaking numbers apart, students can manipulate smaller numbers more easily, making mental math calculations more efficient and accurate.
