Example Question #1 : Map 2nd Grade Math

Solve:

 

 

 

\displaystyle \frac{\begin{array}[b]{r}75\\ +\ 10\end{array}}{ \ \ \space}

Possible Answers:

\displaystyle 80

\displaystyle 75

\displaystyle 85

 

\displaystyle 70

Correct answer:

\displaystyle 85

 

Explanation:

When we add \displaystyle 10 to a two digit number, the only number that changes in our answer is the tens position, and it will always go up by \displaystyle 1. Mentally, we can add \displaystyle 1 to the number in the tens place to find our answer. 

\displaystyle 7+1=8

\displaystyle \frac{\begin{array}[b]{r}75\\ +\ 10\end{array}}{ \ \ \ \space85}

Example Question #1 : Operations And Algebraic Thinking

David is  taller than Alison. Alison is  tall. How tall is David? 

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

This is an addition problem because we have the difference in height from the question. Alison is \displaystyle 53 inches tall and David is \displaystyle 23 inches taller than her, \displaystyle 23 is our difference. We can add our difference to Alison's height to find out how tall David is. 

\displaystyle \frac{\begin{array}[b]{r}53\\ +\ 23\end{array}}{ \ \ \ \space 76}

Example Question #1 : Map 2nd Grade Math

Add:

\displaystyle \frac{\begin{array}[b]{r}51\\ +\ 12\end{array}}{ \ \ \space}

Possible Answers:

\displaystyle 65

\displaystyle 63

\displaystyle 64

\displaystyle 66

Correct answer:

\displaystyle 63

Explanation:

When we add two digit numbers, we start by adding the numbers in the ones place.

\displaystyle \frac{\begin{array}[b]{r}5{\color{Red} 1}\\ +\ 1{\color{Red} 2}\end{array}}{ \ \ \ \ \ \space3}

Next, we need to add the numbers in the tens place. 

\displaystyle \frac{\begin{array}[b]{r}{\color{Red} 5}1\\ +\ {\color{Red} 1}2\end{array}}{ \ \ \ \ \space63}

The final answer is \displaystyle 63
