mental math and associative property of addition
i look at 173 and 427 and see that 
73+27=100
i add now the 100(from 173)+400(from 427)+100(see above)=600
easy
600+301=901

Sum Using Associative property of addition

 A+(B+C)=(A+B)+C=(A+C)+B

→301 + 173 + 427

=301 +(173+427)------Combining 173 and 427 first ,as adding unit digit of both three digit number gives 0.

=301 + 600

=901

⇒Using mental math

Add Hundreds=300+100+400

     =800

Add tens=73+27

 =100

Ones=1

Combine these three numbers

=800+100+1

=901
