Addi on of Zero (0)



            Look and understand :






                                             +                                  =






                 Nothing is                 3 Watermelons are  Same 3 watermelons

              in the basket.                 kept in the basket.                      are in the basket.



                We find that;


                0  +  3  =  3
                                                                         When a number is added
                In the same way;                                         to zero, the number


                0  +  4  =  4                                            remains the same.

                0  +  8  =  8 and so on.




            Do addi on :



                 0        +       5       =                                3        +       0       =



                 0        +       9       =                                8        +       0       =



            Add the following numbers ver cally :



                       5                           1                           0                           0


                    + 0                         + 0                         + 6                         + 4
