Equal Sign & True/False Equations — Answer Key
Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. True or false: 5 + 2 = 8? false
5 + 2 is 7, not 8, so the equation is false.
2. True or false: 3 + 4 = 7? true
3 + 4 is 7, so both sides match.
3. True or false: 6 = 2 + 4? true
2 + 4 is 6, equal to the left.
4. True or false: 9 = 5 + 3? false
5 + 3 is 8, not 9, so it is false.
5. True or false: 4 + 4 = 8? true
4 + 4 is 8, so both sides are 8.
6. True or false: 10 = 6 + 3? false
6 + 3 is 9, not 10, so it is false.
7. True or false: 2 + 5 = 7? true
2 + 5 is 7, matching the right side.
8. True or false: 8 = 4 + 4? true
4 + 4 is 8, same as the left.
9. True or false: 3 + 3 = 7? false
3 + 3 is 6, not 7, so it is false.
Part B: Matching
Match each item on the left to the correct answer on the right.
1. Match each item to its correct answer.
3 + 4 = 7
→ true (sum 7)
true (sum 7)
2 + 2 = 5
→ false (sum 4)
false (sum 4)
1 + 5 = 6
→ true (sum 6)
true (sum 6)
6 + 4 = 9
→ false (sum 10)
false (sum 10)
Check each sum carefully and match to the label that shows whether it is true and the actual total.
