C. ADDITION OF 2-DIGIT NUMBERS WITHOUT EXCHANGING

Method: Add units to units, tens to tens

Examples:

 23      45      62

+ 14    + 32    + 27

—-    —-    —-

  37      77      89

Step by step: 23 + 14:

• Units: 3 + 4 = 7

D. ADDITION OF 3-DIGIT NUMBERS WITH RENAMING

Method: Add units, tens, hundreds. Carry over when needed.

Example 1 (No renaming):

 234

+ 125

—–

  359

Example 2 (With renaming):

  ¹247

+ 156

—–

  403
