Exercise #1

How many units are there in total if we add 4 units to 8 units?

Remember that the number of units is the sum of the two amounts.

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, let's follow the steps:

  • Step 1: Identify the numbers that need to be added. In this case, they are 4 4 and 8 8 .

Answer

12 12

Exercise #3

What is 6 units plus 7 units?

Remember that adding units increases the total amount.

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve the problem of finding the sum of 6 units and 7 units, we follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Identify the numbers to be added. Here, they are 6 and 7.
  • Step 2: Use the addition operation. We need to add the two numbers together: 6+7 6 + 7 .

Let's perform the addition:

6+7=13 6 + 7 = 13

Therefore, the sum of 6 units and 7 units is 13 13 .

Answer

13 13

Exercise #4

If we have 7 blocks and we add a further 7 blocks: How many blocks will we have in total?

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Identify the given information and numbers to add.
  • Step 2: Perform the addition accurately.
  • Step 3: Match the calculated total with the given answer choices to confirm the correct answer.

Now, let's work through each step:
Step 1: The problem provides us with two sets of blocks, each containing 7 blocks. We need to find the total number of blocks after adding them together.
Step 2: Using the formula for addition, add the two sets of blocks: 7+7 7 + 7 . Performing this addition gives us:
7+7=14 7 + 7 = 14 Step 3: Compare this result with the given choices: the correct answer is indeed 14 14 , which matches choice id=1\text{id}=1.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is 14 14 .

Answer

14 14

Exercise #5

What is 5 units plus 6 units?

Remember that each unit here is a whole number.

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

  • Identify the two numbers to be added: 5 and 6.
  • Add these two numbers together using basic arithmetic.

Let's work through the solution step-by-step:
We need to calculate 5+6 5 + 6 . The operation involves simple addition:
5+6=11 5 + 6 = 11
