Looking for Combinations

Solve the same number string three different ways. Use equations to show your solution.

  • 1 Begin by looking for combinations of 10.

    ✓    ✓

    6 + 4 + 5 + 7 + 4

    6 + 4 = 10

  • 2 Begin by looking for doubles.

    6 + 4 + 5 + 7 + 4

  • 3 Begin by looking for near doubles.

    6 + 4 + 5 + 7 + 4

Ongoing Review

  • 4 Which number combination does not make 20?

    • A 10 + 10

    • B 18 + 2

    • C 19 + 3

    • D 5 + 5 + 5 + 5

NOTE

Students practice using combinations they know to solve a problem with several addends.
