P. 36
To calculate 3 465 + 4 574 you can break both numbers down, work
with the parts of the same kind, and then build the answer up.
Break down: Writing the expanded
3 465 = 3 000 + 400 + 60 + 5 notations in separate
4 574 = 4 000 + 500 + 70 + 4 lines makes it easier to
see which parts belong
Work with the parts: together.
3 000 + 4 000 = 7 000
400 + 500 = 900
60 + 70 = 130
5 + 4 = 9
Build up the answer:
3 465 + 4 574
= 7 000 + 900 + 130 + 9
Transfer 100 from 130 to 900
= 7 000 + 1 000 + 30 + 9
Transfer 1 000 to 7 000
= 8 000 + 0 + 30 + 9
= 8 039
