The formal name for the property of equality that allows one to add the same quantity to both sides of an equation. This is one of the most commonly used properties for solving equations.

The formula tells us that if a = b, then a + c = b + c. The letters a and b stand for two separate numbers, our two twins, and the letter c stands for what we give to each twin to keep them matching. So, for example, if we add 1 to the left side of the equation, we must also add 1 to the right side of the equation. By doing this, we keep the equation, the twins, the same.
