On this page we will practise written addition. First we show you the important steps.
This is how we start a written plus task:
- Write numbers correctly one below the other
- Add up numbers in the first column from the right, enter amount
- Add the numbers in the second column.
- And so on until all columns are calculated!
Step 1

Write down the numbers to be added neatly one below the other, as you have learned in the place value system / decimal system.
- One among the ones
- Tens among tens
- Hundreds among the hundreds
- and so on
Step 2

Now first add up only the ones in the right-hand column (result is 10). If the sum is greater than 10, write down the "carry-over" at the bottom of the "tens column", see in the picture above in blue!
Step 3

Now add up only the tens in the tens column (result is 13).
You also have to take the value of the carry. If the sum of the tens is greater than 10, write down the "carry-over" at the bottom of the next "hundreds column", see the picture above in red!
Step 4

Now continue in this way with each column until the last column has been added.
Pay attention to the carry-over in each case. The remaining places were solvedin the example above in the colour green.
