If 137 + 276 = 435 how much is 731 + 672?
Answer : Option C
Explanation :
Given, 137 + 276 = 435
Adding units digits i.e., 7 + 6 = 13, but given as 5, which is 13 - 8 and also 1 is carry forwarded to the tens digit.
i.e., + 1
Here, 7 + 3 + 1 = 1 i.e., 11 - 8 = 3 and 1 is carry forwarded to hundred digits
Now, the sum of digits in hundred's place is 1 + 1 + 2 = 4
ie.,
Using the same logic, we have
Using digits sum 1 + 2 = 3
Tens digits sum = 3 + 7 = 10
i.e., 10 - 2 and + 1 carry forward Hundreds digits sum = 1 + 7 + 6 = 14
i.e., 14 - 8 = 6 and one carry forward.
