FAQ

What is 41 + 15?

41 + 15 = 56

How do you check that 41 + 15 = 56?

Subtract one addend from the sum: 56 − 15 = 41, and 56 − 41 = 15. Getting the other addend back means the sum is right.

How many carries are there in 41 + 15?

None: no column adds up to 10 or more, so every digit of the sum is written straight away.

Is 15 + 41 the same as 41 + 15?

Yes. Addition is commutative, so both give 56; the column looks the same with either number on top.
