I don't see why you are trying to do this with an equation and ReplaceAll
instead of a function. Just Map Total onto the list.

list = {{1, 1}, {2, 2}, {3, 3}};

Total /@ list
{2, 4, 6}

Or you could design your own particular function for combining a and b.

add[{a_, b_}] := a + b

add /@ list
{2, 4, 6}

Hi,

Suppose I have the equation

x=a+b

and the list

l={{1,1},{2,2},{3,3}}

How can I quickly assign the list to the above equation, that is, I
would like to get the following result

{2,4,6}

The first element of each sub-list should be assigned to a and the
second to b.

Thanks in advance.
Kristoph
