We can add these numbers in any order since addition is commutative. Let's start by adding 192 and 234:
```
192
+ 234
-----
426
```
Now we can add this sum to 519:
```
426
+ 519
-----
945
```
So the total sum is 945.
Find 192 + 234 + 519.

"each addend is less than 100, so the sum must be less than 300"
Carol is incorrect because each addend is less than 100, so the sum must be less than 300. We can verify this by adding the numbers:
83 + 96 + 74 = 253
Since 253 is less than 300, we can conclude that Carol's statement is false.
