Addition helps us find the total number of something. It could help you find the total number of pens in your desk, the total number of books in your room, or even the total number of fish in your fish tank, just like Rodrick. Or you could find the total number of apples…
Suppose you had 4 red apples and 6 green apples. You could find the total number of apples by adding the red apples and the green apples together.
4 + 6 = 10
The 4 and 6 are called addends. When we add the addends together, the answer is called the sum. 4 + 6 = 10 uses a plus sign and an equal sign, so it is an addition sentence.
