Remember how 足す means "to add?" Add calculate to that and you'll have addition! It's the type of calculation you're doing when you add.
This is the kun'yomi reading for 足 and the on'yomi for 算. And the さん reading is rendaku'd into ざん. This is the same for all the math-ish words (addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division), so try to remember that, because you'll see it again!
