Question

Find \[56 + 14\]

Answer 1

Hint: Here the question is related to the topic of adding two numbers. In the question we have a ‘plus’ sign, which indicates the addition operation. So on adding these two numbers we get a desired result. First we will write the place value for both the numbers and then we add the numbers which are having the same place.

Complete step by step solution:
Consider the numbers 56 and 14
The unit place value of 56 is 5 and tens place value of 56 is 5. The unit place value of 14 is 4 and tens place value of 14 is 1.
While adding the numbers the same place values should be added
On adding the numbers 56 and 14
When we add 6 and 4 we get the number 10. We write the 0 and we take 1 as carry for the next place value. The number 1 which is present on the number 5, that is carry. So on adding 5 and 1 and 1 we get the number 7.
Therefore \[56 + 14 = 70\]
So, the correct answer is “70”.

Note: Students must sign arithmetic operations. The sign for the addition is +, the sign for the subtraction is -, the sign for the multiplication is \[ \times \] and the sign for the division is \[ \div \]. In the question if they mention the sign we have to know what we should do. While adding the numbers if we get two digits we write the last digit and previous number of the last digit of a number as a carry number for the next place value.
