When the sum in a place value column is greater than 9 , we carry over to the next column to the left. Carrying is the same as regrouping by exchanging. For example, 10 ones for 1 ten or 10 tens for 1 hundred.

Add whole numbers.

  1. Write the numbers so each place value lines up vertically.
  2. Add the digits in each place value. Work from right to left starting with the ones place. If a sum in a place value is more than 9 , carry to the next place value.
  3. Continue adding each place value from right to left, adding each place value and carrying if needed.

Add: 43 + 69 .

Solution

Add the digits in each place.
Add the ones: 3 + 9 = 12

explain assimilatory nitrate reduction
Esinniobiwa Reply
Assimilatory nitrate reduction is a process that occurs in some microorganisms, such as bacteria and archaea, in which nitrate (NO3-) is reduced to nitrite (NO2-), and then further reduced to ammonia (NH3).
Elkana
This process is called assimilatory nitrate reduction because the nitrogen that is produced is incorporated in the cells of microorganisms where it can be used in the synthesis of amino acids and other nitrogen products
