Single Digit Addition with Regrouping
Welcome to an exciting math adventure! Today, we’re learning how to solve single-digit addition problems using regrouping. This is a skill that helps us handle bigger numbers and makes adding fun and easy. Let’s dive in!
What is Regrouping?
Regrouping is a way to organize numbers when their sum in one place value is greater than 9. For example:
8 + 7 = 15
Here, the number 15 has two digits. We can’t fit both digits in the ones place, so we “regroup” the 10 into the tens place and leave the 5 in the ones place.
This process makes it easier to add numbers step by step without confusion.
How to Add with Regrouping
Let’s go through an example together. We’ll add 5 + 6. Follow these steps:
- Step 1: Add the ones place. Start by adding the two numbers:
5 + 6 = 11
- Step 2: Regroup the tens. Since the result (11) is greater than 9:
- Write the 1 (ones digit) in the ones place.
- Carry the other 1 (tens digit) over to the tens place.
- Step 3: Add the tens. If there are other numbers in the tens place, add them together along with the carried-over digit. If there are no numbers in the tens place, just write the carried-over number as the final result.
And that’s it! The final answer is 11.
