Answer

54 + 46 =

The sum is longer than the addends: 2 carries — into the tens and the hundreds; the last one makes a new digit

54 + 46 in a column. Carries are the small circled digits above the columns.
		1carry	1carry
			5	4
	+		4	6
		1	0	0

Column by column: 54 + 46

Ones: 4 + 6 = 10 — write 0, carry 1.
Tens: 5 + 4 + 1 = 10 — write 0, carry 1.
Hundreds: the carried 1 — write 1.

54 + 46 = 100

Second check: 100 − 54 = 46
