Adding 100 only changes the hundreds

Just like adding ten changes only the tens digit, adding 100 changes only the hundreds digit. So 234 + 100 = 334 - the tens and ones don’t move. Seeing it with a hundred-flat makes “100 more” and “100 less” instant mental math.

How to use it

Start with the base-ten blocks: 100 more is one more flat, 100 less is one fewer. Then do it from the number alone - change the hundreds digit, keep the rest. Builds on 10 more, 10 less and place value to the hundreds.

👩‍🏫 Teacher note

Use base-ten blocks: 100 more means one more hundred-flat. Only the hundreds digit changes - the tens and ones stay the same.

🏠 Parent note

To add 100, add one to the hundreds digit: 234 becomes 334. The other digits stay the same.

Common Mistakes to Watch For

  • Changing the tens or ones digit instead of the hundreds
  • Counting by ones to add 100
