The Sum of two integers

It's required to find the sum of 13 + 17

13

+ 17

-----------

First, we add the digits of the units. 3 + 7 = 10

Since the sum is greater than 9, we subtract 10 and account for a carry digit:

1 <-----carry from the previous sum

13

+ 17

-----------

0

Now we sum the digits of the tens: 1 + 1 + 1 = 3. Put that digit in place

13

+ 17

-----------

30

This is the final result: 30
