Commutative Addition Matching Cards

Cut out the cards in the next section. Match each addition expression with the expression that switches the addends but keeps the same sum. Then answer the practice questions.
Find the matching expression for each card.

16 + 37 = 53

42 + 19 = 61

28 + 35 = 63

31 + 46 = 77

37 + 16 = 53

19 + 42 = 61

35 + 28 = 63

46 + 31 = 77

24 + 39 = 63

53 + 18 = 71

27 + 44 = 71

36 + 25 = 61

39 + 24 = 63

18 + 53 = 71

44 + 27 = 71

25 + 36 = 61

32 + 49 = 81

15 + 58 = 73

41 + 33 = 74

26 + 47 = 73

49 + 32 = 81

58 + 15 = 73

33 + 41 = 74

47 + 26 = 73

Show What You Know

Use the commutative property: changing the order of the addends does not change the sum.

1.Write the expression that switches the addends in 34 + 27 = 61.
2.Fill in the missing addend: 22 + 49 = 49 + .
3.Which expression has the same sum as 38 + 24?
  • 24 + 38
  • 38 + 24 + 1
  • 38 + 42
  • 24 + 24
4.Match each expression on the left to the expression that reverses its addends on the right.
  • 17 + 26
  • 39 + 12
  • 23 + 48
  • 31 + 29
  • 26 + 17
  • 29 + 31
  • 48 + 23
  • 12 + 39
