Part of a sum (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

addend

'part of a sum' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for addend that I've seen before include "increasing quantity" , "An increasing number" , "A number put on" , "something to put on" .)

I've seen this clue in the New York Times and the Universal.
