ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION OF WHOLE NUMBERS 

Addition and subtraction of whole numbers is an important mathematical concept that helps us to solve real-world problems.

In order to add or subtract these numbers, we need to understand the concept of place value. The position of a number in the decimal system determines how we will carry out addition or subtraction. For example, if we are working with 4-digit numbers, the units digit is in the ones place, the tens digit is in the tens place, and so on.

When we are adding or subtracting these numbers, it’s important to keep track of our carrying and borrowing operations. We can do this by using a number line or an addition or subtraction chart.

Some useful tips to keep in mind when working with whole numbers include breaking down larger numbers into smaller ones, using mental math strategies whenever possible, and checking your work regularly to ensure accuracy.

Some other key words that are commonly used to indicate addition of numbers include add, combine, increase, sum up, amount to, find the total, add up and add together. Whether you are adding two or more numbers together, or computing a total using different data sources, these key words can help make your calculations more efficient and accurate.
While some key words like decrease, deduct, less, minus or find the difference are the key words that are used to indicate subtraction of numbers.

Examples of simple sums on addition and subtraction of numbers. 

Starting from the simple that is already known to unknown.
1. The sum of two numbers is simply the addition of those two numbers. For example, the sum of 3 and 4 is 7.

2. Subtraction is the process of removing one number from another to arrive at a final total. For example, subtracting 6 from 10 results in a total of 4.

3. When doing calculations involving addition and subtraction, it is important to keep track of your place value in order to avoid making mistakes. For example, adding 5 and 6 might look like this: 5 + 6 = 11, but if you accidentally add the two numbers in the wrong order (6 + 5), you will get a different result of 11 as well.

4. Another common mistake when doing addition and subtraction calculations is to forget to carry over or borrow numbers as needed. For example, adding 9 + 8 might look like this: 9 + 8 = 17, but if you do not carry the 1 from the tens column over to the ones column, you will get an incorrect result of 8.

5. Finally, it is important to remember that the order in which you perform addition and subtraction calculations can have a big impact on the final result. For example, if you are adding 4 + 7, it is easy to lose track of which number belongs in which place value and make a mistake like this: 4 + 7 = 11, when the correct answer is actually 11. By being careful and following the steps of addition and subtraction carefully, you can avoid making these common mistakes.

More examples of simple sums on addition and subtraction of numbers with bigger numbers like million and billion. 

1. Add 5507469 and 4641007.

Solution:

We arrange the given numbers in column and add as follows:

Step 1: Add ones place i.e. 9 + 7 = 16 which is equal to 1 ten + 6 ones

Step 2: Carry 1 ten to the tens column as shown.

Step 3: Add tens place i.e. 6 tens + 0 tens + 1 ten which is equal to 7 tens.

Step 4: Add hundreds place i.e. 4 hundreds + 0 hundred which is equal to 4 hundreds.

Step 5: Add thousands place i.e. 7 thousands + 1 thousand which is equal to 8 thousands.

Step 6: Add ten thousands place i.e. 0 ten thousand + 4 ten thousands which is equal to 4 ten thousands.

Step 7: Add hundred thousands place i.e. 5 hundred thousands + 6 hundred thousands which is equal to 1 million + 1 hundred thousand

Step 8: Carry 1 million to the millions column as shown.

Step 9: Add millions place i.e. 5 millions + 4 millions + 1 million which is equal to 10 millions.

Therefore, the sum of given numbers= 10148476.

2. Add 4167499; 38014 and 3604587.

Solution:

We arrange the given numbers in column and add as follows:

Step 1: Add ones place i.e. 9 + 4 + 7 =20

which is equal to 2 tens 0 ones

Step 2: Carry 2 tens to the ten column as shown.

Step 3: Add tens place i.e. 9 tens + 1 ten + 8 tens plus the carry 2 which is equal to 20 tens as shown. You will write 0 and carry 2 to the hundred column

Step 3: Add hundreds place i.e. 4 hundreds + 0 hundred + 5 hundred plus carry 2 which is equal to 11 under the hundreds column. We will write 1 carry 1.

Step 4: Add thousands place i.e. 7 thousands + 8 thousand + 4 thousands which is equal to 20 thousand plus carry 1 unit.We will write 0 carry 2

Step 5: Add ten thousands place i.e. 6 ten thousand + 3 ten thousand + 0 ten thousand which is equal to 1 tens and carries 1 unit

Step 6: Add hundred thousands place i.e. 1 hundred thousand + 0 hundred thousand which is equal to 6 hundreds plus carry 1 unit equal to 8 hundred of thousand

Step 7 : Finally, add millions place i.e. 4 million + 0 million + 3 million which is equal to 7 million

Therefore, the sum of given numbers= 7810100.

Subtraction is a basic mathematical operation that involves the removal of numbers from other numbers. It is one of the four fundamental operations in mathematics, along with addition, multiplication, and division.

There are two main methods for performing subtraction: borrowing and regrouping. In borrowing, we take a number from the right-hand side of the problem and use it to subtract a number from the left-hand side of the problem. This allows us to perform more complex subtraction operations, such as subtracting large numbers or decimals.

Presentation: The topic is presented step by step
Step 1: The teacher revises the previous topics.
Step 2: The teacher introduces the new topic. Pupils in pairs are encouraged to calculate the sums of 5 or 8 digit numbers. The class teacher or subject teacher also tells the pupils stories on addition and subtraction of numbers
Step 3: the teacher allows the pupils to give their own contributions and he corrects then when the needs arise.
