I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This clue might be a double definition.

'summed' is the first definition.
('add' can be a synonym of 'sum')

'up' is the second definition.
Both the answer and definition are adjectives. Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for added that I've seen before include "Contributed" , "Counted up" , "Extra" , "Totted" , "Said" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Star Tribune.
