2. Addition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Addition

   3 + 2 = 5 with apples, a popular choice in textbooks [1] Addition (usually signified by the plus symbol +) is one of the four basic operations of arithmetic, the other three being subtraction, multiplication and division. [2] The addition of two whole numbers results in the total amount or sum of those values combined. The example in the ...

3. Elementary arithmetic - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_arithmetic

   Elementary arithmetic is a branch of mathematics involving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Due to its low level of abstraction, broad range of application, and position as the foundation of all mathematics, elementary arithmetic is generally the first branch of mathematics taught in schools. [1] [2]

4. Arithmetic - Wikipedia

   For example, subtraction is the inverse of addition since a number returns to its original value if a second number is first added and subsequently subtracted, as in + =. Defined more formally, the operation " ⋆ {\displaystyle \star } " is an inverse of the operation " ∘ {\displaystyle \circ } " if it fulfills the following condition: t ⋆ ...

5. Order of operations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_operations

   If each subtraction is replaced with addition of the opposite (additive inverse), then the associative and commutative laws of addition allow terms to be added in any order. The radical symbol √ is traditionally extended by a bar (called vinculum) over the radicand (this avoids the need for parentheses around the radicand). Other functions ...

   In mathematics, a combination is a selection of items from a set that has distinct members, such that the order of selection does not matter (unlike permutations).For example, given three fruits, say an apple, an orange and a pear, there are three combinations of two that can be drawn from this set: an apple and a pear; an apple and an orange; or a pear and an orange.

7. Algebraic operation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Algebraic_operation

   In mathematics, a basic algebraic operation is any one of the common operations of elementary algebra, which include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, raising to a whole number power, and taking roots (fractional power). [1] These operations may be performed on numbers, in which case they are often called arithmetic operations.
