Solution Steps

00:00 Solve

00:03 Each time consider combining 2 digits, and then we'll place

00:06 Let's start by combining ones with ones

00:09 Place the ones, add 1 to the tens

00:12 Combine tens with tens, remember to add 1 to the calculation

00:17 Place tens in tens, add 1 to hundreds

00:22 Combine hundreds with hundreds, remember to add 1

00:27 Place hundreds in hundreds, and add 1 to thousands

00:35 Combine thousands with thousands, remember to add 1

00:38 Place in thousands

00:41 And that's the solution to the question

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this addition problem, we will follow a systematic step-by-step approach:

Step 1: Align the numbers vertically so that corresponding place values line up. We have:

$\begin{aligned} &3289 \\ + &2835 \\ \end{aligned}$

Tens place: $8 + 3 = 11$ . Add the carry 1: $11 + 1 = 12$ . Write 2 and carry over 1 to the hundreds place.

Hundreds place: $2 + 8 = 10$ . Add the carry 1: $10 + 1 = 11$ . Write 1 and carry over 1 to the thousands place.

By compiling these results, the sum is 6124.

Therefore, the solution to the problem is $6124$ .
