I removed the following:
:Examples:
:3 + 2 = 5 the order of the operands doesnt matter 3 + 2 = 2 + 3 = 5 <br>
:for larger numbers they are added in order of smallest unit to largest unit<br>
:17 + 25 = 42 add the units 5 + 7 = 12 add the tens 10 + 20 = 30 then add them 12 + 30 = 42
Because the text was unclear (even though I could figure out what it meant) and the examples weren't really necessary. The text could probably be reformulated and added back as it's own section, though I'm not sure it's necessary.
Additionally, this whole article is a little too dense for a student encyclopedia. I'd change it myself, but I don't really know what it's saying after the first line or two! [[User:HelpJazz|Help]][[User talk:HelpJazz|Jazz]] 23:03, 17 October 2008 (EDT)
