Let’s solve each problem step by step. We’re adding money amounts in Philippine pesos (₱), so we’ll add the numbers just like regular decimals — aligning the decimal points and adding from right to left.

Problem 1: ₱12.50 + ₱35.50
Add the cents first:
0.50 + 0.50 = 1.00 → that’s 1 whole peso, carry over 1 to the pesos column.
Now add the pesos:
12 + 35 = 47, plus the carried 1 = 48
So total =
₱48.00
✔ Check: 12.50 + 35.50 = 48.00 ✔️

Problem 2: ₱40.50 + ₱23.00
Cents: 0.50 + 0.00 = 0.50
Pesos: 40 + 23 = 63
Total =
₱63.50
✔ Check: 40.50 + 23.00 = 63.50 ✔️
---
Problem 3: ₱65.50 + ₱13.25
Cents: 0.50 + 0.25 = 0.75
Pesos: 65 + 13 = 78
Total =
₱78.75
✔ Check: 65.50 + 13.25 = 78.75 ✔️
---
Problem 4: ₱210.75 + ₱73.50
Cents: 0.75 + 0.50 = 1.25 → write down .25, carry 1 to pesos
Pesos: 210 + 73 = 283, plus carried 1 = 284
Total =
₱284.25
✔ Check: 210.75 + 73.50 = 284.25 ✔️
---
Problem 5: ₱45.05 + ₱14.20
Cents: 0.05 + 0.20 = 0.25
Pesos: 45 + 14 = 59
Total =
₱59.25
✔ Check: 45.05 + 14.20 = 59.25 ✔️

Final Answer:
1. ₱48.00
2. ₱63.50
3. ₱78.75
