The following are some examples of fourth grade math word problems on addition:

1. The price of a Maruti car is $185990 while the price of a Hero Honda motor-cycle is $34576. Find the total cost of the two.

Solution:

Price of a Maruti car     = $ 1 8 5 9 9 0

Price of a Hero Honda   = $ + 3 4 5 7 6

Total price of the two   = $ 2 2 0 5 6 6

Therefore total price of Maruti car and Hero Honda = $220566

Number of women      =         5 9 2 5 2

Number of children     =      + 3 3 2 5 8

Total population        =       1 5 5 9 6 0

Therefore the total population of the city = 1 5 5 9 6 0.

3. What is the sum of 5437, 1328 and 1237?

Solution:

The given numbers are arranged in columns
