Near doubles are almost doubles, but are 1 more or one less. So for example 6+7 is the same as 6+6+1 or Double 6+1 because we partition (split) the 7 into 6 and 1. Can you solve these near double sums by doubling and adding 1? E.g.

14+15=29

14+14+1=29

 

12+13

16+17

19+20

14+15

20+21

17+18

10+11

22+23
