Question

i think you disregerded the decimal my answer was correct!

Answer 1

Dear,

Where is the confusion?

If you add 100 to 5000 you will get 5100 first.

And if you add 2006 to it, you will get 7106 as total.

Remember that you should first add numbers in the units place, then in the tens place, then in the hundreds place and so on.

For example if we have two numbers, 26 and 84 we add first 6 and 4.

26
84

We get 10. So we keep zero in the units place and take 1 to the tens place. So we have

2
8
1

When we add them, we get 11, so we keep 1 in the tens place and take 1 to the hundreds place (11 times 10 is 110)

So we get 110 as the answer.

In your case you have

5000
2006
0100 (100 and 0100 are the same numbers)

Units place = 0 + 6 + 0 = 6

Tens place = 0 + 0 + 0 = 0

Hundreds = 0 + 0 + 1 = 1

Thousands = 5 + 2 + 0 = 7

So, we have the total as

7106
