Addi  on can be done using fi ngers. Let’s add 4 and 3                          1   2  3
                    using fi ngers.                                                                          4

                     •  Count the fi rst number on your fi ngers. So, count
                          4 fi ngers and fold the remaining fi ngers.

                     •  Now, count the second number on the remaining                              2   3  4       6 7
                          fi ngers. So, count 3 more fi ngers.                                                5
                                                                                                 1
                     •  The total number of fi ngers is the answer.
                          So, 4 + 3 = 7.


                      2.  Check the addi  on. Then put a   ck ( ) if it is correct or a cross () if it
                                                                           
                           is incorrect.
