Exploring Fact Families in Mathematics

The video tutorial explains the concept of fact families, where numbers are related like family members. It demonstrates how to identify the largest number in a fact family and use it to solve two addition and two subtraction problems. The tutorial provides examples with different sets of numbers, showing how to arrange them in addition and subtraction equations. The lesson emphasizes checking the correctness of the solutions and understanding the relationships between numbers in a fact family.
