(i) 158+153
⇒158+3⇒1511
Hence, 158+153=1511.
(ii) 1512−157
⇒1512−7⇒155⇒31
Hence, 1512−157=31.
(iii) 1−32
⇒33−32⇒33−2⇒31
Hence, 1−32=31.
(iv) 137+132−135
⇒137+2−5⇒134
Hence, 137+132−135=134.
(v) 254+353
⇒514+518⇒514+18⇒532⇒652
Hence, 254+353=652.
(vi) 372−174
⇒723−711⇒723−11⇒712⇒175
Hence, 372−174=175.
