Explain why you can check subtraction by adding?

You can check subtraction by adding because subtraction is essentially the inverse operation of addition. When you subtract a number from another, the result should match the original number when you add the subtracted value back to the result. If the sum of the result and the subtracted number equals the original number, then the subtraction was performed correctly. This relationship between the two operations ensures accuracy in calculations.

Does associative property work for subtraction explain?

No, the associative property does not work for subtraction. The associative property states that the way numbers are grouped in an operation does not change their result, which is true for addition and multiplication. For subtraction, changing the grouping affects the outcome; for example, (10 - 2) - 3 equals 5, while 10 - (2 - 3) equals 11, demonstrating that the result depends on how the numbers are grouped.
