Here we will show you step-by-step how to calculate 66 plus 68 (66 + 68) using the Long Addition Method. We start by setting up our math problem as follows:
| 6 | 6 | |||||||
| + | 6 | 8 | ||||||
The next step is to add the ones digits together (6 + 8 = 14). Since the sum creates 1 tens digit, we put the 1 in the tens column, and the 4 at the bottom of the ones:
| 1 | ||||||||
| 6 | 6 | |||||||
| + | 6 | 8 | ||||||
| 4 |
Then in our final step, we add the tens digits together (including the 1 from the previous step): 6 + 6 + 1 = 13 and put that sum at the bottom:
| 1 | ||||||||
| 6 | 6 | |||||||
| + | 6 | 8 | ||||||
| 1 | 3 | 4 |
And that is how you solve 66 plus 68 using the Long Addition Method! The answer is displayed mathematically below:
66 + 68 = 134
