Multiplying and dividing

#

And also adding and subtracting them fast

I think for multiplying, etc. numbers fast you just have to practise and do a lot of multiplications, divisions, etc. there is no magic behind it. Or do you mean you don't know at all how to do it?

Perhaps you can use it to develop number sense.

#

It can be used for addition subtraction multiplying and dividing.

I you haven't yet, maybe get a sense for solving easy equations and get to know variables

i’m in 7th too when i was in like kindergarten - 4th grade i did flash cards and times tables with cards

and just learn factors

#

ok so basically @sweet helm

#

and equation is something with an equal sign

#

like 1+1=2

#

and a variable is a placeholder

#

imagine a menu

#

where the order is x

#

if you were to order a burger, x = burger

#

for example

#

but variables are for numbers not food

#

so if x was the amount of days you were in this server, 22-19=x, x = 3

#

however, variables can be used in the middle of equations

#

think of this equation 4+x=5

#

to solve it, we must kind of "reverse engineer" it

#

the inverse of addition is subtraction and therefore we use subtraction to find the answer

#

5-4=x
