Solve 0.6 + 0.6: Visual Decimal Addition with Number Blocks

Question

$0.6+0.6=$

00:00 Solve

00:03 We will use long addition for calculation

00:09 We will place the decimal point in the appropriate position

00:12 We will start by adding the smallest appropriate digits

00:19 We will place the units and remember 1 above

00:29 We will add 1 to this calculation and place it

00:37 And this is the solution to the question

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

Step 1: Align the numbers by their decimal points.
Write $0.6$ directly under $0.6$ :

\begin{array}{c} 0.6 \\ +0.6 \end{array}

Step 2: Add the tenths places. $6 + 6 = 12$ . Write down $2$ in the tenths place and carry over $1$ to the units place.
Step 3: Add the units place with the carry-over. $0 + 0 + 1 = 1$ . Write down $1$ in the whole number place.

Thus, when we add $0.6$ and $0.6$ , we obtain:

1.2

Therefore, the solution to the problem is $1.2$ .
