Arithmetical process (8)

I believe the answer is:

addition

(Other definitions for addition that I've seen before include "Tally, tot" , "Simple kind of arithmetic" , "Calculation of the sum of numbers" , "One of the four basic planks of arithmetic" , "Arithmetic calculation" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
