How can Steve add 48+34 by making a ten what is the sum
48+34=48+2+32=50+32=82
Help with the problem
To add 48 and 34 by making a ten, Steve can first break down the numbers into their tens and ones.
48 can be broken down as 40 + 8, and 34 can be broken down as 30 + 4.
Next, Steve can add the tens together. 40 + 30 equals 70.
Now, to make a ten, Steve can combine the ones. 8 + 4 equals 12.
Since 12 is greater than 10, Steve needs to carry over the extra ones to the tens place.
By carrying over, Steve can add 1 to the sum of the tens.
So, 70 + 1 equals 71.
Therefore, the sum of 48 and 34 by making a ten is 71.
