How to Solve Decimals - Addition

Align the decimal points and add from right to left, starting with the hundredths column. Carry to the tenths column when the sum exceeds 9, and from tenths to ones if needed. If one number has fewer decimal places, you can add trailing zeros to help with alignment (e.g., 3.4 becomes 3.40).
