Answer: Yes, the set of real numbers is closed under addition.

Explanation:

Let x and y be two real numbers. Their sum x+y is some other real number. This is what it means when we say the set of real numbers is closed under addition. Taking any two numbers and adding them will get us some other real number.

There is no way to have x+y be nonreal while x,y are both real.
