Addition is a useful strategy for calculating ‘how many’ when two or more collections of objects are combined. When there are many collections of the same size, addition is not the most efficient means of calculating the total number of objects. For example, it is much quicker to calculate 6 × 27 by multiplication than by repeated addition.
