Carry-Over Help: Two-Digit AdditionOnline version Two-digit addition with carry explained. by Arnab Biswas Boy Ms. Carter, can you help me with adding two-digit numbers that need a carry?

Boy So the 1 goes to the tens column? Teacher Exactly. Now add the tens: 4 + 2 + 1 = 7. Write 7 in the tens place. Boy That gives 73. Is that correct? Teacher Yes! 47 + 26 = 73, with a carry from ones to tens. Boy Can we try another one, like 58 + 67? Teacher Sure. 8 + 7 = 15; write 5, carry 1; tens: 5 + 6 + 1 = 12; write 2 and carry 1 to hundreds; hundreds: 1; result 125.
