Add by Composing Hundreds

Practice adding numbers within 1000 with carry at the tens place. While adding numbers using place value concepts, students add ones to ones, tens to tens and hundreds to hundreds. In this method, sometimes it is necessary to regroup the resulting tens as hundreds. Add by Composing Hundreds Worksheet focuses on problems with situations, where it is necessary to regroup tens to compose hundreds. This concept is the precursor to the concept of carry in the standard algorithm.
