Answer 1

number concepts cover skills of counting and comparing both these skills are basis of mathematics needed to be mastered as a foundation for more complex maths ,number operations include skills of addition and subtraction.

on the other hand the basic arithmetic operation are addition,subtraction ,multiplication and division .the basic arithmetic properties are the commutative ,associative and distributive properties.

Example include

36+0=36

Apart from addition,subtraction,multiplication and division there are many more operations which include squaring,square root ,logarithms,differentiation ,intergrating etc.I think the explanation suits well
