Addition can be done using fingers. For example, let’s add 4 and 3.
• Count the first number on your fingers. So, count 4
fingers and fold the remaining fingers.
• Now, count the second number on the remaining fingers.
So, count 3 more fingers.
• The total number of fingers is the answer.
So, 4 + 3 = 7.
