Question

There were 12 sparrows in the trees and 30 sparrows on the roof. 25 more sparrows flew from across the street. How many sparrows were there

Answer 1

Since there are 12 sparrows in the trees, and 30 on the roof, $12+30$ gives you 42.

Then, there are 25 more sparrows flying, if we do $42+25$ we get 67.

So the answer is: That there is 67 sparrows.

Answer 2

Hi!

To solve this, we add the numbers. 

   12
   30

---------
   ??

First, add the numbers in the ones place.

   12
   30
+ 25
---------
   ?7

Now add the digits in the tens place.

   12
   30
+ 25

   67

The answer is 67 sparrows. 

Hope this helps! :)
