Understanding Multi-Digit Addition
-
Estimate to predict and check
- Before performing the exact addition, you can estimate the result to get a rough idea of what the sum should be. This can help check your work later.
-
Strategies to mentally add multi-digit numbers
- You can use strategies like rounding numbers to the nearest ten or hundred to make mental calculations easier.
- Break apart numbers into smaller, more manageable parts (for example, adding tens and then adding the ones).
