Question

At a specific level in the game Hoppity Bugs, Jack scored 488,059,273 points, but Merry scored 378,922,464 points more than Jack. Then, total points scored by Merry was

Answer 1

Total points scored by Merry was 378,922,464 greater than Jack's Points 488,059,273.
$\therefore$ Merry's points was 488,059,273 + 378,922,464

Aligning both the numbers according to Place Value table,



For adding these two numbers we need to add the like terms of both the digits together i.e. digits at ones place will be added together, digits at tens place will be added together and so on..

So, adding Ones place digits, we get



Now, adding digits at Tens place,



As we know that,

$13$ Tens $=10$ Tens $+3$ Tens

$10$ Tens $+3$ Tens $=1$ Hundreds $+3$ Tens

So, we will keep $3$ at the Tens place and give $1$ as a carry to Hundreds place.



Similar operations will be done for addition of rest of the digit's places, as depicted in figure below,



Therefore, $378,922,464+488,059,273=866,981,737$
