ADDITION OF ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSION BY COLUMN METHOD

Column Method

We have to find out the addition of following algebraic expression which are 4a + 8b - 9c,  8a – 5b + 3c ,  - 6a + 8b + 7c

 

                   4a + 8b - 9c

                   8a – 5b  + 3c

                -  6a + 8b + 7c

           -----------------------

                   6a + 11b + c  

Step.1) we have to write the expressions one below the others so that the like terms fall in the same column

Step.2)  Add the terms in each column.

Step.3)  Add the result obtained
