Here are the steps to solve the example problems:
1) How much is the total electric bill of the family for six months?
- January: P1,500
- February: P2,000
- March: P2,500
- April: P1,000
- May: P500
- June: P1,000
- To find the total, add all the bills:
P1,500 + P2,000 + P2,500 + P1,000 + P500 + P1,000 = P9,500
2) How much less is the electric bill of the family in May than in April?
- April bill: P1,000

3. Preface
The Next Generation Math series covers topics and competencies that are aligned with
the Basic Education Curriculum (BEC) and the Engineering and Science Education Program
(ESEP) of the Department of Education. It is composed of different mathematics disciplines:
elementary algebra in first year; intermediate algebra in second year; geometry in third year;
and advanced algebra, trigonometry, statistics, and calculus in fourth year. It tries to cover
numerous important topics that will satisfy the needs of different groups of learners.
The series supports the constructivist approach to teaching and learning process.
Lessons are presented through meaningful activities which are designed to provide you an
opportunity to make different connections between concrete situations and mathematics. The
activities are designed to develop your skills in problem solving, critical thinking, decision
making, and creative thinking through exchange of ideas and your own discovery. Each book
in this series provides opportunities for you to discuss, explore, and construct mathematical
ideas and interpret new information and knowledge at a different perspective. You will
also be able to structure and evaluate your own conjectures and apply previously acquired
knowledge and skills.
The series has the following salient features:
⢠Lessons are inquiry based, enriched with applicable technologies, and integrated with
science and real-life applications.
⢠Emphasis on the development of higher-order thinking skills is evident in the
illustrative examples and exercises provided in every lesson. To enhance your
mathematics skills, the degree of difficulty of the problems ranges from simple to more
challenging ones.
⢠Exercises include research work to emphasize the importance of research as a tool
in satisfying the quest for knowledge and acquiring valuable insights about certain
topics.
⢠Historical notes, application of mathematical ideas in future careers, and pieces of
trivia are presented in each chapter.
It is with a sincere desire to provide a useful tool in enhancing appreciation and better
understanding of mathematics that the Next Generation Math series was conceptualized.

Walk Through
⢠Addition is the process of combining two or more numbers. The numbers that are added
are called addends. The result or answer in addition is called the sum or total.
⢠Basic properties of addition of whole numbers
1. Closure Property: The sum of two or more whole numbers is also a whole number.
For any whole numbers x, y, and z: x + y = z.
2. Commutative Property: The order of the addends does not change the sum.
For any whole numbers x and y: x + y = y + x.
3. Associative Property: The way the addends are grouped does not change the sum.
For any whole numbers x, y, and z: (x + y) + z = x + (y + z).
4. Identity Property: The sum of any nonzero whole number and zero is always that non
zero number. Zero (0) is the identity element for addition.
For any nonzero whole number x: x + 0 = x.
⢠Subtraction is finding the missing addends. The number from which you subtract is
called the subtrahend. The number that is subtracted from the subtrahend is called the
minuend. The result or answer in subtraction is called the difference.
Example 1: Find the missing number n.
a. 1 357 + 2 064 + 3 809 = n
b. 2 706 â 1 354 = n
c. 2 509 + 1 346 + n = 4 807
d. 7 500 â n = 6 453
e. n â 3 029 = 1 579
Solution:
a. 1 357 b. 2 706
c. 2 509 4 807
2 064 â 1 354 + 1 346 â 3 855
+ 3 809 1 352 3 855 952
7 230
n = 1 352 n = 952
n = 7 230

â 6 453 + 3 029
1 047 4 608
n = 1 047 n = 4 608
Example 2: Find the missing number n and identify the basic property of addition of whole
numbers used.
a. 1 305 + 2 604 + 3 987 = 1 305 + n + 2 604
b. 1 732 + 0 = n
c. (2 048 + 3 609) + 4 507 = n + (3 609 + 4 507)
d. (5 902 + 4 302) + 3 018 = 3 018 + (5 902 + n)
e. 1 407 + 1 302 = n + 1 407 + 1 302
Solution:
a. n = 3 987; Commutative Property
b. n = 1 732; Identity Property
c. n = 2 048; Associative Property
d. n = 4 302; Commutative Property
e. n = 0; Identity Property
Example 3: Use a calculator to solve each problem.
a. Mrs. Martinez sold 145 oranges on Monday, 102 oranges on Tuesday, and
213 oranges on Wednesday. How many oranges did she sell altogether for three days?
b. John had 100 collectible cards. He gave 23 cards to Mark and 32 cards to Luke. He
then sold the rest of his collectible cards. How many collectible cards did he sell?
Solution:
a. Let x total number of oranges sold for three days.
=
x = 145 + 102 + 213
= 460
Mrs. Martinez sold 460 oranges in all for three days.
b. Let y = number of collectible cards sold.
y = 100 â (23 + 32)
= 100 â 55
= 45
John sold 45 collectible cards.

11. Example 4: Use a calculator to solve the problem.
There are 5 318 nonfiction books in the library. There are 2 405 fewer fiction books
than nonfiction books. How many nonfiction and fiction books are there in the library?
Solution:
Let z = number of fiction books in the library.
z = 5 318 â 2 405
2 913
=
There are 2 913 fiction books in the library.
Let w = total number of nonfiction and fiction books in the library.
w = 5 318 + 2 913
= 8 231
There are 8 231 nonfiction and fiction books in the library.
Example 5: Katrina has 40 stamps. Grace has 18 more stamps than Katrina. Mae has 12
more stamps than Grace. How many stamps do they have altogether?
Solution:
Let x = number of stamps Grace has.
x = 40 + 18
= 58
Grace has 58 stamps.
Let y = number of stamps Mae has.
y = 58 + 12
= 70
Mae has 70 stamps.
Let z total number of stamps Katrina, Grace, and Mae have.
=
z 40 + 58 + 70
=
= 168
Katrina, Grace, and Mae have 168 stamps altogether.
