If I'm reading the question correctly, you might consider; 1. Sum and 2.Total
Example Addition problem: 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 = ? Ask yourself how many 2's there are.... There are 4 in the addition problem. To turn it into a multiplication problem, you take the original number (2) and multiply it by however many of the number there are.... So, 2 + 2 + 2 + 2 is the same as 2 X 4.
An answer is a solution to a problem such as to answer to 1 + 1 is 2 and 2 is the answer or the sum in addition.
The answer to an addition problem is called the sum.The sum of 2 plus 2 is 4.
Let's say we have the addition problem 1 + 2 = 3 1 and 2 are the addends. 3 is the sum.
addends
That would be an addition problem such as 2+3=5 5 would be the sum.
6
2+20+3
3+2+3
if you were doing 3+2=5, 5 would be the sum. the sum is the answer to an addition problem.
The commutative property of addition is a fact that proves an answer is the same even if you switch the 2 numbers in the addition problem around. This only works with addition.
The mathematical addition problem 2 plus 2 is equal to 4.
