Do you count on your fingers? - LMPara - May 31, 2024
When doing math, do you use your fingers to count, divide, multiply, add, and subtract? Or are you the type of person to do it all mentally? I use my fingers sometimes when I need to do quick math, but its very rare haha. Its mostly if I'm listing off things that I'll use my fingers. What about you?

I don't think I use them for counting at all, maybe some type of problem solving or something.

I usually do it in my brain, but sometimes use papers or even calculator, but usually i do it on my brain

Nah, for me maths hasn’t really ever been that difficult mentally. Visualise the numbers and do your sum like on paper but in your imagination. E Z P Z.

I do the math in my head, but I do remember counting on my fingers back in the day.. it's a tried and tested technique that always works! You might look funny doing it, but as long as you get to your answer, then that's all that should matter.

Only when it’s a simple calculation to make sure I’m 200% correct.

I do hand movements most of the time especially when explaining so most likely I use my fingers when doing math. 🙃
