Word Problems on Addition and Subtraction of Whole Numbers
We will learn how to solve step-by-step the word problems on addition and subtraction of whole numbers. We know, we need to do addition and subtraction in our daily life. Let us solve some word problem examples.
Word problems on adding and subtracting of large numbers:
1. The population of a country in 1990 was 906450600 and next year it is increased by 9889700. What was the population of that country in the year of 1991?
The population of a country in 1990 = 906450600
Increased population by next year = + 9889700
Total population of that country in 1991 = 916340300
Therefore, the population of that country in the year of 1991 is 916340300.
