FAQ

What is 256 + 244?

256 + 244 = 500

How do you check that 256 + 244 = 500?

Subtract one addend from the sum: 500 − 244 = 256, and 500 − 256 = 244. Getting the other addend back means the sum is right.

How many carries are there in 256 + 244?

2 carries: every time a column added up to 10 or more, its ones digit was written and 1 was carried to the next column on the left.

Is 244 + 256 the same as 256 + 244?

Yes. Addition is commutative, so both give 500; the column looks the same with either number on top.
