What is 5+5?

OpenStudy (chiunlee12):

the answer varies

OpenStudy (chiunlee12):

normally, it would be 10. But there can be exceptions

OpenStudy (picklelover):

Please tell me, it's for my homework

OpenStudy (picklelover):

I have to describe what 5+5 is

OpenStudy (chiunlee12):

well, 5 + 5, as you learn in elementary school would be 10 right?

OpenStudy (picklelover):

Yes

OpenStudy (mikaella.gabriella):

Use your fingers?

OpenStudy (chiunlee12):

assuming you have 5 solid objects, and 5 more solid objects would normally equal 10 more objects

OpenStudy (chiunlee12):

the easiest way is to just give an example that proves 5+5 = 10

OpenStudy (picklelover):

And how do i do that? I'm quite confused :/

OpenStudy (chiunlee12):

what grade are you right now? I need this for research purposes

OpenStudy (picklelover):

7th grade

OpenStudy (picklelover):

Thank you for helping me btw, i appreciate it

OpenStudy (welshfella):

you could draw a picture of 10 objects in 2 rows of 5

OpenStudy (girlofhope):

I believe it would be 10. But it can be different.

OpenStudy (picklelover):

oh thank you for the suggestion! thank you all

OpenStudy (chiunlee12):

don't worry about it, personally, i think the best solution is to give an example just how welshfella suggested.
