1. Do you know that when we add 0 to any
number, the sum is the number itself? For
example, 568 + 0 = 568.
2. When 1 is added to a number, we get the
next number, or the successor. For
example, 140 + 1 = 141.
3. Do you know what carry over means? It is
a digit that is transferred from one column
of digits to another column. For example,
when 6 and 7 are added to make 13, the
"3" is written in the same column and the
"1" is carried to the column to the left.
