Video Solution

Solution Steps

00:00 Solve

00:03 Each time we calculate the sum of 2 digits, and then we substitute

00:06 Let's start by adding ones with ones

00:09 Place the ones, and remember 1 above

00:12 Add tens with tens, remember to add 1 to the calculation

00:19 Place in the tens position

00:23 And this is the solution to the question

Step-by-Step Solution

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

Let's work through each step:

Step 1: Write the numbers in vertical alignment:

$\begin{array}{c} 52 \\ +39 \\\hline \end{array}$

Step 2: Add the digits in the ones column (rightmost):

$2 + 9 = 11$ . Since this is more than 9, write 1 in the ones place and carry over 1 to the tens place.

Step 3: Add the digits in the tens place:

Including the carried over 1 from the ones addition, add $5 + 3 + 1 = 9$ .

Write 9 in the tens place.

Therefore, the sum of $52 + 39$ is $91$ .

Thus, the correct solution to the problem is 91.
