Question

If the sum of both the equations is equal, find the missing numbers.
Equation 1: $\left(\right(i)+24)+35$
Equation 2: $33+(24+(ii\left)\right)$

• A. (i) 35 (ii) 24
• B. (i) 33 (ii) 35
• C. (i) 35 (ii) 33
• D. (i) 24 (ii) 33

Answer 1

The correct option is B (i) 33 (ii) 35

According to the associative property of addition, the sum of addends remain the same regardless of how they are grouped.
(i) From Equation 2, we know that the missing number in equation 1 is 33.
(ii) From Equation 1, we know that the missing number in equation 2 is 35.
