Adding doubles can help you multiply by 2 through the property of commutativity in multiplication. By adding two equal numbers together (doubles), you are essentially multiplying one of the numbers by 2. For example, 5 + 5 = 10, which is the same as 5 x 2 = 10. This strategy can simplify multiplication problems and help build a deeper understanding of the relationship between addition and multiplication.
