Here we will show you step-by-step how to calculate 88 plus 95 (88 + 95) using the Long Addition Method. We start by setting up our math problem as follows:
| 8 | 8 | |||||||
| + | 9 | 5 | ||||||
The next step is to add the ones digits together (8 + 5 = 13). Since the sum creates 1 tens digit, we put the 1 in the tens column, and the 3 at the bottom of the ones:
| 1 | ||||||||
| 8 | 8 | |||||||
| + | 9 | 5 | ||||||
| 3 |
Then in our final step, we add the tens digits together (including the 1 from the previous step): 8 + 9 + 1 = 18 and put that sum at the bottom:
| 1 | ||||||||
| 8 | 8 | |||||||
| + | 9 | 5 | ||||||
| 1 | 8 | 3 |
And that is how you solve 88 plus 95 using the Long Addition Method! The answer is displayed mathematically below:
88 + 95 = 183
