Java Assignment, add value to variable in different class

currently doing an assignemnt but i'm new to programming so was wondering how you add a value to a variable in a different class which already has an existing class

    class OtherClass {
        int a;
    }
    public class Main Class{
      public static void main(String[] args) {
        int b = 7;
        OtherClass temp = new OtherClass();
        OtherClass.a = 5
        OtherClass.put(b) //this is where I'm not sure how to add b to a
}

Actual Code

public static void main(String[] args) { 
// TODO Auto-generated method stub 
System.out.print("Enter amount of money you have: "); 
Scanner input = new Scanner(System.in); 
Wallet bettersWallet = new Wallet(); 
bettersWallet.moneyAvailable = input.nextDouble(); //then had a function which played out a bet and added/took away winnings from the bet 

 int winnings = 5;
 bettersWallet.moneyAvailable +=winnings; //Will setMoneyAvailable function work in this scenario aswell?

}

class Wallet {
    double moneyAvailable;
    double openingCash;
    public void setMoneyAvailable()
    {
        moneyAvailable += ChuckALuckDiceGame.winnings;
    }

int b = 7;
OtherClass temp = new OtherClass();
temp.a = 5;
temp.a += b; //Same as temp.a = temp.a + b;
System.out.println(temp.a);

What we are doing here, We are creating an object of class OtherClass, the name of the object is temp. Then we are assigning the value 5 in the attribute a of object temp

Then we are adding the value of primitive variable b into the variable temp.a.

The sum of the above equation is being assigned to the value of temp.a

Then I am printing the sum at the end through System.out.println(temp.a);
