Let's solve each problem step by step. We will use place value addition (H = Hundreds, T = Tens, O = Ones) to add the numbers.

Problem 1:

There are 241 roses and 146 sunflowers in a basket. How many flowers are there in the basket?

- Number of roses → 241
- Number of sunflowers → 146
- Total number of flowers = ?

Now add:

```
H T O
2 4 1
+ 1 4 6
--------------
3 8 7
```

Explanation:
- Ones: 1 + 6 = 7
- Tens: 4 + 4 = 8
- Hundreds: 2 + 1 = 3

✔ Total = 387

> ✔ Answer: 387 flowers

Problem 2:

There are 67 apples and 216 oranges in a fruit shop. How many fruits are there in all?

- Number of apples → 67
- Number of oranges → 216
- Total number of fruits = ?

We can write 67 as 067 for alignment:

```
H T O
0 6 7
+ 2 1 6
--------------
2 8 3
```

Explanation:
- Ones: 7 + 6 = 13 → Write 3, carry over 1
- Tens: 6 + 1 = 7, plus carry-over 1 = 8
- Hundreds: 0 + 2 = 2

✔ Total = 283

> ✔ Answer: 283 fruits

Problem 3:

There were 23 cars and 87 motorcycles in a parking lot. How many vehicles are there in the parking lot?

- Number of cars → 23
- Number of motorcycles → 87
- Total number of vehicles = ?

```
H T O
0 2 3
+ 0 8 7
--------------
1 1 0
```

Explanation:
- Ones: 3 + 7 = 10 → Write 0, carry over 1
- Tens: 2 + 8 = 10, plus carry-over 1 = 11 → Write 1, carry over 1 to hundreds
- Hundreds: 0 + 0 + carry-over 1 = 1

✔ Total = 110

> ✔ Answer: 110 vehicles

Problem 4:

A school has 345 girls and 225 boys. Find the total number of students in the school.

- Number of girls → 345
- Number of boys → 225
- Total number of students = ?

```
H T O
3 4 5
+ 2 2 5
--------------
5 7 0
```

Explanation:
- Ones: 5 + 5 = 10 → Write 0, carry over 1
- Tens: 4 + 2 = 6, plus carry-over 1 = 7
- Hundreds: 3 + 2 = 5

✔ Total = 570

> ✔ Answer: 570 students
