Solve Vertical Addition: 48 + 52 Step-by-Step

$\begin{aligned} &48 \\ +& \\ &52 \\ &\underline{\phantom{776}} & \\ \end{aligned}$

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

• Step 1: Align the numbers vertically by their place value.
• Step 2: Add the digits in the units column.
• Step 3: Manage any carryover if necessary.
• Step 4: Add the digits in the tens column along with any carryover.

Now, let's work through each step:

Step 1: Align the numbers.

48
+52
___

Step 2: Add the digits in the units column:
8 (from 48) + 2 (from 52) = 10.
This gives us 0 in the units place and we carry over 1 to the tens place.

Step 3: Add the digits in the tens column, including the carried over 1:

4 (from 48) + 5 (from 52) + 1 (carryover) = 10.

Thus, the digit 0 goes to the tens place, and 1 will be placed in the hundreds place.

Therefore, the full solution looks like this:

48
+52
___
100

Therefore, the solution to the problem is $100$.
