COMPOUND ADDITION is the adding of numbers, which consist of articles of different value, as pounds, shillings, pence, and farthings, called different denominations; the operations are to be regulated by the value of the articles which must be learned from the Tables. RULE FOR COMPOUND ADDITION. 1. PLACE the numbers so that those of the same denomination may stand directly under each other. 2. ADD the first column or denomination together, and carry for that number which it takes of the same denomination to make 1 of the next higher. Proceed in this manner with all the columns, till you come to the last, which must be added as in Simple Addition. I BEGIN with the right hand column or that of pence, and having added it, find the sum of the numbers therein contained to be 24; now as 12 of this denomination make one of the next higher, or in other words, 12 pence make one shilling, therefore in this, or in the column of pence I must carry for 12 ; I now enquire how often 12 is contained in 24, the sum of the first column or that of pence; knowing it to be 2 times and nothing over, I set down 0 under the column of pence, and carry 2 to that of shillings, to be added into the second column, saying 2 I carry to 6 is 8 and 3 is 11 and 7 is 18 and 10 to 18 is 28 and 10 again is 38 (for so each figure in tens place must be reckoned, I in that place being equal in value to 10 units.) Now as 20 shillings make one pound, therefore, in the column of shillings, I carry for 20; I then enquire, how often 20 in 38.? once, and 18 remains, therefore, I set down directly under the column of shillings 18, what 38 contains more than 20, and for the even 20 carry one to pounds or the last column, which is to be added after the manner of Simple Addition. NOTE. The method of proof for compound addition is the same as that of simple addition. 4.
