In adding numbers expressed by two or more figures, you must always begin at the right hand, and add the column of units first; then ascertain how many times ten can be obtained in the amount of the column of units; and if ten is contained an exact number of times, and nothing left, place underneath a cipher; but if any remain, after taking away the tens, you must set down that remainder, and carry to the next column, or column of tens, as many as ten was contained times in the column of units. That is, if ten were contained add one to the ten's place, if once, twice, add two, if three times, add three, &c. In like manner proceed with every column, remembering to set down the whole amount of the left hand column. Proof. Add each column downwards from the top, or cut off the top line and add the amount of the numbers below the line to the line cut off, and the amount, if the work be right, will be equal to the sum total. |
