ADDITION OF WHOLE NUMBERS

without Regrouping and with Regrouping

I. INTRODUCTION

As we grow older, we begin to see how things add up in the world. You accumulate experiences
and life lessons that can be used in the future. Math calculations are necessary at home, in the
community, and on the job. By mastering the basics, such as addition, you’ll feel more confident in a
variety of settings that require quick calculation of numbers in your head. A strong foundation in Basic
Mathematics is also useful for more complex operations in decimals.
Decimals also have the four basic operations that include addition. We can add decimals the
way we do with whole numbers.
Adding whole numbers and decimals means that we are combining numbers to form a total.
Each number being added is called an addend and the total, which is the answer to the addition
problem is called the sum.

II. LEARNING COMPETENCY

The learner should be able to add 3- to 4-digit numbers up to three addends with sums up to
10,000 without and with regrouping. (M3NS-Id-27.6)

III. LEARNING ACTIVITY

A. ADDITION OF WHOLE NUMBERS

Adding Without Regrouping

Adding numbers with more than one digit requires an understanding of place value.
The place value of a digit is the value based on its position within the number. In the number
492, the 4 is in the hundreds place, the 9 is in the tens place, and the 2 is in the ones place.
Adding numbers with 1 digit is pretty straightforward. In general, you can do it mentally or
use your fingers. Adding zero to a number never changes the number. Here are some examples:

10

Adding 15 and 4 is another story, here is the step-by-step process of getting its sum.
Because 5 and 4 have the same place value, make sure they
are aligned when you add.

First, add the ones digits (the numbers on the right). The
result goes in the ones place for the answer.

Then, add the tens digits and put the result in the tens place
of the answer. In this case, there is no tens digit in the
 second number so the result is the same as the tens digit of
the first number (1).
The sum of 15 and 4 is 19.
Adding Without Regrouping

When adding whole numbers, a place-value position can have only one digit in it.
If the sum of digits in a place value position is more than 10, you have to regroup the
number of tens to the next greater place value position. When you add, make sure you line
up the digits according to their place values, as in the example below. As you regroup,
place the regrouped digit above the appropriate digit in the next higher place value position
and add it to the numbers below it.

Here is an example:

You must add digits in the ones place first, the digits in the tens place next, and so
on. Go from right to left. Another example is shown below, find the sum of 4576 and 698.

The sum of 4576 and 698 is 5274.
