Name the property used in the following:
$-\frac{4}{5}+0=0+(-\frac{4}{5})=-\frac{4}{5}$


Given :

The given expression is $-\frac{4}{5}+0=0+(-\frac{4}{5})=-\frac{4}{5}$.

To do :

We have to name the property used in the given expression.

Solution :

The identity property for addition :

$a + 0 = 0 + a = 0$

Adding 0 and any number does not change the value.

Here, $-\frac{4}{5}+0=0+(-\frac{4}{5})=-\frac{4}{5}$.

Therefore, the property used in the given expression is The identity property for addition
