Here we will show you step-by-step how to calculate 2 plus 12 (2 + 12) using the Long Addition Method. We start by setting up our math problem as follows:
| 0 | 2 | |||||||
| + | 1 | 2 | ||||||
The next step is to add the ones digits together (2 + 2 = 4) like this:
| 0 | 2 | |||||||
| + | 1 | 2 | ||||||

Then in our final step, we add the tens digits together (0 + 1 = 1) like this:
| 0 | 2 | |||||||
| + | 1 | 2 | ||||||
| 1 | 4 |
And that is how you solve 2 plus 12 using the Long Addition Method! The answer is displayed mathematically below:
