  1. The way the problem is posted needs to show a decimal between the top two boxes. Otherwise it seems like we are adding a two digit whole number to the decimal.

  2. 3.5+8.9=12.4

  3. 3.4+4.0=7.0

  4. 3.8 + 5.2 =9.0

  5. 2.8+3.2=6.0

  6. 5.2+3.5=8.7

  7. Bryce Bowlin 1st pd

    5.1=7.9=13

  8. I found a different solution. 5.6 + 7.3 = 12.9

  9. it equals 7.4

  10. i no under sand dis. plz help

    The solutions given in the solutions section have a bit of a problem.

    For example:
    2.4 + 1.5 = 3.9 and 2.5 + 1.4 = 3.9 are both included, which you could argue are not unique because for every solution a.b + c.d = e.f, the equation a.d + c.b = e.f holds too (in other words you can swap the tenth places of the addends to get another solution)
    This wouldn’t be a problem if you always included both. However, the list of solutions contains 2.9 + 1.8 = 4.7, but not 2.8 + 1.9 = 4.7. It contains both 3.2 + 1.7 = 4.9 and 3.7 + 1.2 = 4.9, but out of 1.2 + 3.6 = 4.8 and 1.6 + 3.2 = 4.8 it only contains the former.

    So here’s the actual list of the 171 unique solutions (you can multiply that by 4 because you can swap the whole places of the addends or the tenth places of the addends to get another solution):

    First the 71 solutions without leading zeros:
    2.3 + 8.4 = 10.7

    7.5 + 8.9 = 16.4
    8.2 + 9.3 = 17.5
    8.2 + 9.4 = 17.6
