Today we will learn about addition of Double Digit with Double Digit. This will follow the basic rules we have learnt so far. Similar to Double Digit and Single Digit addition, this has to follow left to right rule.
Let’s see a very simple example where we add 2 numbers, both double digits.

34
+45

In this example, we first quickly do a mind calculation whether the Units place digit is a carry over or simple addition. This can be easily done since we have already mastered tutorial 1. So in this example, since 4+5 is not a carry over, we do the sum of the tens digit and write the result and write the sum of units place digit on the right.

So the answer comes out to be 79.

Let’s take another example where the units digit is a carry over.

24
+27

In this example, we can think in microseconds that the units digit sum is a carry over. So we add 1 to the tens place and write the tens place answer and write the units digit of 4+7 in the ones place.
So the answer comes out to be 51.

Let’s see another example where both Units digit and tens digit are carry overs.

47
+85

Since 7+5 is a carry over, we add 1 to the tens place. Now we sum the tens place digits with an addition of 1 from the unit’s place carry over and write down the answer for the tens place. And then we simply write the last digit of unit’s digit sum on the unit’s place.

These techniques are very simple and require practice. Once mastered, you will be able to do addition of multiple digits in seconds.

Now practice this with multiple sums until you can get the answers within 2 seconds.

34 67 56 45 23 78 67 08 23 13 21 18 56
+95 +93 +84 +76 +67 +52 +48 +30 +24 +11 +85 +52 +68

98 87 76 65 54 43 32 21 12 23 34 45 56
+56 +44 +32 +29 +11 +63 +75 +89 +94 +85 +22 +55 +61

So you must practice more problems around this to master this addition and in the next tutorial, we will learn how to add a list of digits.
