Introduction
The following work was done in order to provide a synthesis of the operations.
Basic operations with integers and decimals. The concepts of each one will be analyzed.
basic operations, as it is essential to always keep them in mind, because they not only do
use it in classes but in the everyday and work life of everyone.

SUMA
Addition is understood as an operation that allows adding one amount to another or others.
homogeneous. It consists of adding twonumbersor more to obtain a total amount.
Commutative law: the order of the factors does not change the result.
Associative law: The sum of several numbers does not change by substituting several addends.
his/her sum.
Dissociative law: The sum of several numbers does not change by decomposing 1 or several.
adding in 2 zeros plus addends.
RESTA
Subtraction is known as subtracting, which consists of taking a quantity away from another.
The number being subtracted is called the minuend and the number being decreased is called the subtrahend; the result is known as
as a difference, the numbers that are added to verify that the result is correct
it is the subtrahend and the difference, it is identified with the sign (-) and is called minus.

DIVISION
Division is a mathematical operation that consists of distributing the total into equal parts.
of a numerical whole.
In the event that the division is possible, it consists of investigating how many times
a number (divisor) is "contained" in another number (dividend). The result of a
division is called quotient. Generally speaking, it can be said that division is
the inverse operation of themultiplicationas long as it is done in a field.
The addition and subtraction with decimal numbers is exactly the same as with whole numbers.
The only thing to watch out for is certain aspects such as:
Write the numbers, one under the other, with the decimal points aligned.
Examples:
2,752
1,452
+1,300
2,752
2) 372,528 - 69,68452 =
372,52800
-69.68452
302,84348
First, you must multiply without considering that there are decimals.
a) First we will carry out the division as if the dividend were a whole number, without having
keep in mind that some figures are decimals.
b) Once the division is resolved, we will count the decimal figures that the dividend has and
they will be the ones that carry the quotient.
