The worksheet is titled
"Doubles", and it asks you to solve addition problems where both numbers being added are the same (i.e., doubling a number). This is a foundational math skill that helps build fluency in addition.
Let’s go through each problem step by step:
---
Left Column:
1.
1 + 1 =
→ 1 doubled is
2
2.
2 + 2 =
→ 2 doubled is
4
3.
3 + 3 =
→ 3 doubled is
6
4.
4 + 4 =
→ 4 doubled is
8
5.
5 + 5 =
→ 5 doubled is
10
6.
6 + 6 =
→ 6 doubled is
12
---
Right Column:
7.
7 + 7 =
→ 7 doubled is
14
8.
8 + 8 =
→ 8 doubled is
16
9.
9 + 9 =
→ 9 doubled is
18
10.
10 + 10 =
→ 10 doubled is
20
11.
11 + 11 =
→ 11 doubled is
22
12.
12 + 12 =
→ 12 doubled is
24

Explanation:
"Doubles" means adding a number to itself. For example,
5 + 5 means two groups of five, which equals ten. These facts are helpful because they form a pattern:
- Each result is
twice the original number.
- You can also think of it as multiplying by 2:
$$
n + n = 2 \times n
$$
So, for instance:
- $ 6 + 6 = 2 \times 6 = 12 $
This concept helps children memorize basic addition facts quickly and builds confidence in mental math.
✔ All answers are correct and follow the doubling rule!
Parent Tip: Review the logic above to help your child master the concept of printable doubles worksheet.
