The student is adding 1.347 and 3.68 which is the same as
3.680
The result cannot be 50.27 because 7 is the third
digit after the decimal point, not the second. Also 8 + 4 = 12 which implies that 2 is
the second digit after the decimal point in the result not the first. Again, 6 + 3 + 1 =
10 making 0 the first digit after the decimal and the number before the decimal is
5.
Apart from this, the student is adding small numbers
like 1.347 and 3.68, the answer is a number around 5 not a large number like
50.
The result the students gets by adding
1.347 and 3.68 using a calculator is wrong.
