How to do mathematical accounts by hand

The term "sum" is used in mathematics to describe the result of adding two or more numbers. Finding the sum of two or more numbers is one of the most elementary operations of arithmetic and is a necessary skill to master before moving on to higher forms of mathematics. There are a couple of ways to do the sums : you can use a calculator or you can write your math problems to find the sums at hand .

Steps to follow:

one

Write the first number. For example, "12".

two

Write the second number below it in the same column. For example, write "14". Draw a line below the bottom of the two numbers. This is where the answer goes.

3

Add the numbers in the column on the right: 4 + 2 = 6.

4

Add the numbers in the left column: 1 + 1 = 2. The answer you have left is 26. Suppose the numbers are more difficult to add, such as 25 + 36. First, add 6 and 5. The answer It is 11, but do not write "11". Instead, write "1" and then take the other "1" (the rest) to the numbers in the tens column. Now calculate 2 + 3, as well as the 1 that you took, like this: 1 + 2 + 3 = 6. The result should look like this: 25 + 36 = 61. If there were more digits in the numbers you are adding - for example, three, four or five digits, keep taking the rest from right to left until you reach the final.
