WEEK SIX                                      Date:……………….

TOPIC: BASIC OPERATIONS

CONTENT:

  • Addition of Numbers ( Place Values)
  • Subtraction of Numbers ( Place Values)

 

Addition of Numbers 

The easiest method of adding or subtracting numbers is by having the knowledge of place value system. By this system of arrangement, all units ( U), Tens (T), Hundreds (H), Thousands ( T), and so, are vertically arranged in line. Note that numbers are written from right to left by their place values. 

Example 1

Add the following numbers: 1092, 84, 8, 183.

Solution 

Th   H     T     U

     1    9      9      2

                   8      4

  +                       8

            1     8      3

     2     2     6      7   

Method

U = 2 + 4+ 8+ 3 = 17 ( write 7 under U and carry 1 to the T column)

T = 9 + 8 + 8 + (1) = 26 ( write 4 and carry 2 to the H column)

H = 0 + 1 + (1) = 2 ( write 2 under H and carry 1 to Th)

Th = 1 + (1) = 2 ( write 2 under the Th)

Example 2

Ukachi has 1578 apples, jide has 682 apples and victor has 88 apples. How many apples do they have all together?

Solution

TH     H     T     U

   1      5     7      8

 +        6     8      2

                  8      8

   2      3     4      8

 

Example 3

A man spent #2500 on housing, #1245 on savings, #3480 on feeding and #248 on the children’s education. How much did he spend altogether? 

Solution


TH     H      T     U

 2        5      0      0

 1        2      4      5

 3        4      8      0

           2      4      8

7         4      7      3

Evaluation:

  1. Find the sum of 76,721, 2393, 184 and 96.
  2. A man earned N73485.00 three years ago N 98472.00 a year ago and N124390.00 this year. How much altogether did he earn for the three years?

 

Subtraction of Numbers

Example 1

The sum of two numbers is equal to 67512. If one of the numbers is 24351, what is the second number? 

Solution

 

TTH     TH    H     T      U

  6          7      5      1       2

- 2          4      3      5       1

  4          3      1      6       1

Evaluation:

  1. There are 24 students in a class which comprises of 14 girls and 10 boys. If 5 girls and 3 boys were absent, how many students are present in the class?
  2. Find the difference between 10342 and 2015

General Evaluation
