Maths builds on four core operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

• Adding numbers creates a sum, like combining 7 and 4 to get 11.
• Subtracting shows the gap between numbers, such as 15 minus 6 equals 9.
• Multiplication repeats addition quickly (4 × 3 = 12 means adding 4 three times).
• Division shares a total evenly or finds how many times one fits into another.

Once you're confident with these basics, complex topics become straightforward.

Without strong foundations in these operations, advancing in maths becomes challenging.
