How do we add two-digit numbers with carryover?

• Adding two-digit numbers with carryover is like a little math adventure!
• First, we add the numbers in the ones place (the right side).
• If that total is 10 or more, we write down the last number and carry the first number over to the next column.
• Then, we add the numbers in the tens place, including the carried over number.

• Example 1: 27 + 46
  • Add the ones: 7 + 6 = 13.
  • Write down 3 and carry over 1.
  • Add the tens: 2 + 4 + 1 = 7.
  • The answer is 73!


• Example 2: 58 + 34
  • Add the ones: 8 + 4 = 12.
  • Write down 2 and carry over 1.
  • Add the tens: 5 + 3 + 1 = 9.
  • The answer is 92!


• Example 3: 79 + 25
  • Add the ones: 9 + 5 = 14.
  • Write down 4 and carry over 1.
  • Add the tens: 7 + 2 + 1 = 10.
  • The answer is 104!
