Here we will show you step-by-step how to calculate 79 plus 83 (79 + 83) using the Long Addition Method. We start by setting up our math problem as follows:
| 7 | 9 | |||||||
| + | 8 | 3 | ||||||
The next step is to add the ones digits together (9 + 3 = 12). Since the sum creates 1 tens digit, we put the 1 in the tens column, and the 2 at the bottom of the ones:
| 1 | ||||||||
| 7 | 9 | |||||||
| + | 8 | 3 | ||||||
| 2 |
Then in our final step, we add the tens digits together (including the 1 from the previous step): 7 + 8 + 1 = 16 and put that sum at the bottom:
| 1 | ||||||||
| 7 | 9 | |||||||
| + | 8 | 3 | ||||||
| 1 | 6 | 2 |
And that is how you solve 79 plus 83 using the Long Addition Method! The answer is displayed mathematically below:
79 + 83 = 162
