Use mental calculations to add the given multiple of 100 to a three-digit number
Home / 2nd grade / Addition / Mental calculations / 3-digit number plus multiple of 100
When we want to add a smaller number to a bigger number, there are sometimes shortcuts that make it easier. If one of the numbers is 100 or a multiple of 100, adding that number to another number just means increasing the hundreds column of the other number by the number of hundreds you are adding.
So, for instance, if you want to add:
657 + 200
all you need to do is add 2 to the hundreds column value which is 6, so you get 8 for the hundreds column. The rest of the other number stays the same, so the total addition looks like this:
657 + 200 = 857
In the same way, adding 419 and 400 gives:
419 + 400 = 819
It is the same idea if you want to add units to 3 digit numbers but this time you would add to the units column value by the number of units you want to add, so, for instance, 271 + 5 = 276 because all we had to do was add 5 to the units column value to get an answer.
