After seeing the standard algorithm for adding and subtracting large numbers, you might also want to see some other options.
You may find it easier to do certain addition and subtraction problems if you regroup the numbers first. Watch the video below to see how regrouping can be applied to larger addition and subtraction problems. Then, try some of the worked examples below.
Evaluate $10400+10600$10400+10600 by doing the following.
Fill in the box with the missing number.
$10400=10000+\editable{}$10400=10000+
Fill in the box with the missing number.
$10600=\editable{}+600$10600=+600
Using the results from the previous parts, evaluate $10400+10600$10400+10600.
Partition numbers to evaluate $14010+26090$14010+26090.
Using regrouping, evaluate $100000-2000$100000−2000.
