6B Fact Families: Related Facts When a question in a textbook asks for a "related fact," it is asking for the other facts in its fact family. If you recall from previous skills, a fact family is simply taking the 3 numbers in a math fact and changing the order so the problem is still correct. Therefore, the math fact related to 7+5=12 is 12-7=5. You can see that all three numbers in the addition number sentence are used in the subtraction fact, but just in a different order.. |
