Use place value to understand multi-digit addition. Place value helps break down the numbers into their respective columns (units, tens, hundreds, etc.), making it easier to add them together systematically. For example, when adding 234 and 467, you can line them up by their place values:
234
+ 467
------
Then, add each column starting from the rightmost side (units) and carry over any excess to the next column as needed. This method helps ensure accuracy and aids in conceptual understanding of how numbers work together.
