Carrying hundreds

Let us add 591 and 274.

Step 1: Add ones. 1 one + 4 ones = 5 ones.

Step 2: Add tens. 9 tens + 7 tens = 16 tens

= 10 tens + 6 tens = 1 hundred + 6 tens

Write 6 under tens column. Carry 1 hundred to hundreds column.
Step 3: Add the hundreds column.

5 hundreds + 2 hundreds + 1 hundred (carried over) = 8 hundreds

Write 8 in hundreds column.
