Here we will show you step-by-step how to calculate 62 plus 99 (62 + 99) using the Long Addition Method. We start by setting up our math problem as follows:
6 | 2 | |||||||
+ | 9 | 9 | ||||||
The next step is to add the ones digits together (2 + 9 = 11). Since the sum creates 1 tens digit, we put the 1 in the tens column, and the 1 at the bottom of the ones:
1 | ||||||||
6 | 2 | |||||||
+ | 9 | 9 | ||||||
1 |
Then in our final step, we add the tens digits together (including the 1 from the previous step): 6 + 9 + 1 = 16 and put that sum at the bottom:
1 | ||||||||
6 | 2 | |||||||
+ | 9 | 9 | ||||||
1 | 6 | 1 |
And that is how you solve 62 plus 99 using the Long Addition Method! The answer is displayed mathematically below:
62 + 99 = 161
