Exercise 4.1                                                                               PAGE: 4.4 
1. Fill in the blanks to make each of the following a true statement: 
(i) 359 + 476 = 476 + ….. 
(ii) …. + 1952 = 1952 + 2008 
(iii) 90758 + 0 = …. 
(iv) 54321 + (489 + 699) = 489 + (54321 + …..) 
Solution: 
 
(i) 359 + 476 = 476 + 359 using commutativity 
 
(ii) 2008 + 1952 = 1952 + 2008 using commutativity 
 
(iii) 90758 + 0 = 90758 using the additive identity 
 
(iv) 54321 + (489 + 699) = 489 + (54321 + 699) using associativity 
 
2. Add each of the following and check by reversing the order of addends:
