Explanation

The chapter presents a word problem about leopard populations. Add the three numbers: 1355 + 1131 + 1817. Using the column method with regrouping: 5+1+7=13 ones = 1 ten + 3 ones. 5+3+1+1(carry)=10 tens = 1 hundred. 3+1+8+1(carry)=13 hundreds = 1 thousand + 3 hundreds. 1+1+1+1(carry)=4 thousands. Total = 4303.

Solution Steps

  1. Step 1: Write the numbers: 1355 + 1131 + 1817

  2. Step 2: Add ones: 5 + 1 + 7 = 13, write 3, carry 1

  3. Step 3: Add tens: 5 + 3 + 1 + 1 (carry) = 10, write 0, carry 1

  4. Step 4: Add hundreds: 3 + 1 + 8 + 1 (carry) = 13, write 3, carry 1

  5. Step 5: Add thousands: 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 (carry) = 4

  6. Step 6: Answer = 4303
