Q: Use mental math to find the sum:
Answer:
Q: Leslie has 21 wooden sticks. Her brother has 13 wooden sticks. Find the total number of sticks with them.
Leslie’s wooden sticks:
Her brother’s wooden sticks:
Answer:
So, the total number of wooden sticks are 3 tens and 4 ones = 34
Representation of 2-digit number using the blocks
A 2-digit number has a tens place and ones place.
Here the ones place is represented as one block and tens place is represented as combination of 10 blocks as shown below:
1 ten is represented as:
1 one is represented as:
Also 10 ones combine to make 1 ten:
Q: Represent the number 27 using place value block.
Answer: The number 27 can be written as 2 tens and 7 ones.
Q: Represent the number 43 using a place value block.
Answer: The number 43 can be written as 4 tens and 3 ones.
Sum of 2-digit number using the blocks
Using the blocks let us find the sum of 2-digit numbers by just adding tens blocks and ones blocks separately with the given example below:
Q: Find the sum of 44 + 31.
Answer:
Further it is equal to:
Now let’s, find the sum of 2-digit number by regrouping.
Q: Add 18 and 37
