Addition of 2-digit Numbers                                                                             27


        Adding three 2-digit Numbers

        The concept of adding three 2-digit numbers is just similar to the adding

        two 2-digit numbers without or with regrouping.
                                                                                                     Tens  Ones
        Let us add 35, 22 and 27.                                                                    1

        Step 1:  Arrange the addends in columns under tens and                                        3       5

                    ones.                                                                             2       2

        Step 2:  Add the ones first.                                                                + 2       7


        Step 3:  5 ones + 2 ones + 7 ones = 14 ones = 1 ten + 4 ones                                  8       4

                    Write 4 in ones column and take 1 ten to the tens column as carry.

        Step 4:  Add the tens.

                    3 tens + 2 tens + 2 tens + 1 ten (carried over) = 8 tens.


                    Write 8 in the tens column.


         Add the following (without regrouping).



                     T O                        T O                        T O                        T O
                     1 0                        4 1                        5 2                        6 3

                     2 2                        2 0                        2 2                        1 2

                + 3 2                      + 1 0                      + 1 1                      + 2 1







                     T O                        T O                        T O                        T O
                     2 3                        1 3                        4 2                        3 3

                     3 3                        3 2                        1 0                        2 2
                + 3 1                      + 1 0                      + 3 6                      + 4 2
