In the study of math, a amazing aspect
is its patterns.

Addition
6 + 6 is a double. The answer is 12.
6+6=12
Now 6+ 5 is one less…(12-1) = 11
6+5=11
6+7 is one more…(12+1) = 13
6+1=13
Knowing the doubles, you know more.
Math multiplication facts have patterns, too. Check out the book
True Learning to find them.
Find the patterns within the number!
12 = 1x12, 2x6, 3x4
28 = 1x28, 2x14, 4x7 and! 1+2+14+4+7 = 28!
If a man's wit
be wandering,
let him study the mathematics.
