The four basic maths skills are addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

• Adding numbers creates a sum, like combining 7 and 4 to get 11.
• Subtraction removes one number from another to find the difference (9 − 4 = 5).
• Multiplication is fast repeated addition, turning 6 groups of 5 into 30.
• Dividing breaks numbers down, like sharing 20 sweets among 5 friends gives 4 each.

Once you're confident with these basics, more advanced topics become far simpler.

Think of these four skills as your numerical building blocks for life.
