52 + 15 = 67

How do you check that 52 + 15 = 67?

Subtract one addend from the sum: 67 − 15 = 52, and 67 − 52 = 15. Getting the other addend back means the sum is right.

How many carries are there in 52 + 15?

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

Is 15 + 52 the same as 52 + 15?

Yes. Addition is commutative, so both give 67; the column looks the same with either number on top.
