If vector A is added to vector B, the result is another vector, C, written A + B = C. The operation is performed by displacing B so that it begins where A ends, as shown in Figure 1A. C is then the vector that starts where A begins…

Addition is ...
... bringing two or more numbers (or things) together to make a new total.
| Here 1 ball is added to 1 ball to make 2 balls: | |
| Using Numerals it is: | 1 + 1 = 2 |
| And in words it is: | 'One plus one equals two' |
Example: When we add 2 and 3 we get 5.
We can write it like this:
2 + 3 = 5
Try It
Write this down, with the answer, using numerals:
You should get: 4 + 3 = 7
Have a Play
Drag the numerals to the two blue boxes see how addition works:
Swapping Places
Swapping the position of the numbers we are adding still gets the same result!
More Examples:
5 + 1 = 1 + 5 = 6
7 + 11 = 11 + 7 = 18
4 + 100 = 100 + 4 = 104

Addition Table
We can also 'look up' answers for simple addition using the Addition Table (but it is really best to learn to remember the answers).
Example: Find 3 + 5
• find the row starting with '3'
• move along to be under the column '5'

• and there is the number '8', so 3 + 5 = 8
