Addition of Three 1-Digit Numbers

To add three numbers, we add any two numbers first. Then, we add the third number to the sum of the first two numbers.

For example, let us add the numbers 3, 4 and 5.

We can write the numbers horizontally or vertically as shown below.

3 + 4 + 5 = 12

Note:

The order of numbers does not matter even when we are adding 3 numbers.

For example,

1 + 3 + 5 = 4 + 5 = 9 and

3 + 5 + 1 = 8 + 1 = 9
