question

Here are the ways to make 4. Find the pattern and type the missing addition sentence.

0 + 4 = 4

1 + 3 = 4

2 + 2 = 4

3 + 1 = 4

solution

Find the first number in each addition sentence. Look for a pattern. Each number is one more than the number above it. To complete the pattern, the missing addition sentence must start with 4.

Now find the second number in each addition sentence. Look for a pattern. Each number is one less than the number above it. To complete the pattern, the missing number must be 0. The second number in the missing addition sentence is 0.

The missing addition sentence starts with 4 + 0. This is a way to make 4. The missing addition sentence is 4 + 0 = 4.
