How do you regroup in additon?

Answer 1

Back in the day, regrouping in addition was called "carrying" and regrouping in subtraction was called "borrowing." I think "regrouping" is a better term for all of it. This problem might be easier to visualize if you copy it vertically.

Example: 45 + 28

5 + 8 is 13, which won't fit in the ones place, so we leave 3 of the ones there and regroup the ten other ones into one ten which we add in the tens column. 1 + 4 + 2 = 7

45 + 28 = 73
