Rigorously speaking, they are added and submitted arithmetically.

Promoting arithmetic to be equivalent to mathematics is somewhat akin to promoting the learning of the alphabet to be equivalent to reading the entire works of Shakespeare. Arithmetic is there to stop you from being fleeced in the supermarket, maths is a set of modelling tools for describing reality. Another bad habit on the increase. Tut!

Having got that off my chest. : )

For future reference, all numeric bases expressed in the Arabic Sanskrit numeral system conform to the prototype:

d X B ^ n-1

Where (given that the units column is always column 1 and the fractionals are columns numbered 0,-1,-2 and so on) for each digit D in the number, starting from the right, the value of the digit is

d (Column value) times B (base denominator) raised to the power n-1 (column number minus one)

Which means that arithmetical operations are the same regardless of the numeric base.
