Addition worksheet for Grade 2 students using pictures, number lines, and equations to solve word problems.

Let’s solve each part step by step.

Part a:

Bob has 9 red pencils.
His sister has 2 blue pencils.
We need to find how many pencils there are altogether.

That means we add:
9 + 2 = ?

Let’s count on the number line:
Start at 9, then jump 2 steps forward → 10, 11.

So, 9 + 2 = 11

Equation: 9 + 2 = 11
Answer: 11 Pencils

Part b:

Olivia has 3 pink dresses.
Her sister has 8 pink dresses.
Total dresses? Add them:
3 + 8 = ?

On the number line: Start at 3, jump 8 steps → 4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11

So, 3 + 8 = 11

Equation: 3 + 8 = 11
Answer: 11 Dress (Note: It should be “Dresses” but worksheet says “Dress”, so we follow it.)

Wait — let me double-check both:

a. 9 + 2 = 11 ✔
b. 3 + 8 = 11 ✔

Both answers are 11. That’s correct.

Final Answer:
a. Equation: 9 + 2 = 11 | Answer: 11 Pencils
b. Equation: 3 + 8 = 11 | Answer: 11 Dress
