When you're adding the variable "к" to the number with the variable like "499к", you simply add the coefficients (numerical values) together, since they have the same variable:
499к + к
Since there's no numerical coefficient written in front of the second "к", it is understood to be 1. So, the equation is equivalent to:
499к + 1к
Combining like terms (adding the coefficients), we get:
(499 + 1)к
500к
So, 499к + к equals 500к.
