Question

Add the decimals :

$0.82$ and $0.34$

Answer 1

Step 1 : Convert the decimals in like decimals :

Both the decimals are already like decimals as $0.82$ , $0.34$ .

Step 2 : Add the decimals in columns such that the digits having the same place value are placed in the same column. The decimal points must also be positioned in the same column.

$$\begin{gathered} 0.82 \\ +0.34 \\ \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \\ 1.16 \\ \_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_ \end{gathered}$$

Thus , the addition of the two decimals is $1.16$ .
