Addition : 15 + 6 = 21, 23 + 5 = 28, 12 + 14 = 27
Subtraction : 25 – 10 = 15, 13 – 4 = 9, 55 – 25 = 30
3.5 – 2.1 = 1.4, 4.8 – 3.2 = 1.6, 8.5 – 6.2 = 2.3
Multiplication : 10 x 10 = 100, 12 x 5 = 60, 25 x 6 = 150
5/4 x 3 = 15/4, 2/3 x 3 =2, 16/5 x 4 = 64/5
Division : 27 ÷ 3 = 9, 36 ÷ 6 = 6, 45 ÷ 5 = 9
