Show how you could add 580 + 460
using mental math.
Use compensation.
Remember that you can use compatible
numbers, compensation, or equal
additions to find sums and differences.
1. 1,990 + 1,360
2. 2,940 – 1,820
3. 5,130 + 470
4. 670 – 280
5. 3,560 – 1,460
6. 60 + 120 + 140
So, 580  +  460 = 1,040.
