One method to find the sum of 262 + 299 is by using vertical addition.

To solve the problem, follow these steps:

Step 1: Write the two numbers vertically with the units digits aligned.

262
+ 299

Step 2: Start by adding the units digits together: 2 + 9 = 11.

Step 3: Write the 1 in the units place as the rightmost digit of the answer, and carry over the 10s place digit (in this case, 1).

1
262
+ 299

1

Step 4: Add the 10s place digits together, including the carry-over digit: 1 + 6 + 2 (carry-over) = 9.

Step 5: Write the 9 in the 10s place as the second digit from the right in the answer, and carry over the 100s place digit (in this case, none).

1
262
+ 299

91

Step 6: Add the 100s place digits together: 2 + 1 (carry-over) = 3.

Step 7: Write the 3 in the 100s place as the leftmost digit in the answer.

1
262
+ 299

391

Therefore, the sum of 262 + 299 is equal to 391.
