Question

• A. $880$
• B. $860$
• C. $660$
• D. $770$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $770$

Given, there are $544$ red roses and $226$ yellow roses in a garden.
So, the total number of roses $=544+226$

Let’s represent each of these numbers based on their place value and add them.
$544$ can be decomposed as $500+40+4$.
$226$ can be decomposed as $200+20+6$.



So, there are $770$ roses in total.
