Solve the Decimal Addition: 0.4 + 0.3

Question

Solve the following:

$0.4+0.3=$

00:05 Let's solve this by adding vertically.

00:09 First, arrange the numbers one below the other.

00:13 Make sure the decimal points line up nicely.

00:16 Start with the smallest digits on the right.

00:20 Add them up and write the result.

00:25 Keep going, add the next digits, and write each total.

00:34 That's how you find the answer! Well done!

To solve the decimal addition $0.4 + 0.3$ , we will follow these steps:

Step 1: Line up the numbers by the decimal point.
Step 2: Add the decimal fractions directly as both numbers have only one digit after the decimal point.
Step 3: Sum the values and retain the decimal point in the same position for the result.

Let's begin the calculation:

Write the numbers aligning them by the decimal point:

$0.4$
$+0.3$
_______
$0.7$

Adding the two numbers $0.4$ and $0.3$ gives $0.7$ .

Therefore, the solution to the problem is $0.7$ , which matches choice 1.
