Addition patterns over increasing place values
Learn with an example
➡️ Complete the pattern:
3 + ____ = 8
30 + ____ = 80
300 + ____ = 800
Find the first missing number:
3 ones + 5 ones = 8 ones
3 + 5 = 8
Now complete the pattern:
3 tens + 5 tens = 8 tens
30 + 50 = 80
3 hundreds + 5 hundreds = 8 hundreds
300 + 500 = 800
➡️ Complete the pattern:
_____+ 1 = 4
______+ 10 = 40
_______ + 100 = 400
Find the first missing number:
3 ones + 1 one = 4 ones
3 + 1 = 4
Now complete the pattern:
3 tens + 1 ten = 4 tens
30 + 10 = 40
3 hundreds + 1 hundred = 4 hundreds
300 + 100 = 400
➡️ Complete the pattern:
8 + 8 = _____
80 + 80 = _____
800 + 800 = ______
First, add:
8 ones + 8 ones = 16 ones
8 + 8 = 16
Now complete the pattern:
8 tens + 8 tens = 16 tens
80 + 80 = 160
8 hundreds + 8 hundreds = 16 hundreds
800 + 800 = 1,600
