               Sub-topic-3: WORD PROBLEMS ON ADDITION AND SUBTRACTION


               WORD PROBLEMS ON ADDITION:

                     Important key words used in word problems of addition:

                       Sum


                       total

                       in all

                       altogether.



               Example -1: There are 6785134 men, 4563123 women, 1342575 children in a city.
               What is the total population of that city.


               Solution:

               Step-1: Number of men in a city =6785134

               Step-2: Number of women in a city =4563123

               Step-3: Number of children in a city=1342575


               Step-4: Total population in that city= 6785134+4563123+1342575 (We will add here
               because total population has been asked)

                    1            1             1                         1            1
                    TL           L           T.th          TH            H            T            O
                    6            7             8            5            1            3            4
                    4            5             6            3            1            2            3
                    1            3             4            2            5            7            5
                    12           6             9            0            8            3            2


               Hence, the total population of the city is 1,26,90,832.

               Example-2: Find the number 7654 more than 387654.

               Solution:
