Let's Talk About Numbers

Numbers are something we all use in our lives from day to day. They are a mathematical way to count, and measure, as well as label stuff.  In the decimal system, there are 10 actual numbers, but boy, can you make a lot of numbers out of those 10.

Adding them together, subtracting them, dividing them or multiplying the combinations are endless.

Today, many people use calculators or computers to do their calculations. In many countries, an abacus is still used to teach maths to kids, and by merchant traders and clerks. 
We learnt our numbers and tables parrot fashion and to this day, most of us can work things out without using a calculator.

This is more for an adult to use.

Something that is used by adults and children alike. It does make you lazy though. I think it’s far better to use your brain.

Whereas, this is basically a child’s one.

Different numbers are classed as lucky in different Countries

This is a lucky number in China and other Asian countries.

Whereas, this poor number is supposed to be unlucky. I’m not superstitious, so I don’t believe in any of it, but I do know that some are.

Whereas, this is considered lucky in the Western world and cultures.

Here are a few examples of other things numbers are used for.

Bingo cards!

Roll the dice!

House numbers which most of you probably have.

Birthday candles!

Ok, what do you use numbers for? You have a phone number, or a house number, I would imagine, and possibly you use numbers in your passwords.  Whatever you use them for, they are a big part of our life and we can't do without them.
Do you have a lucky number or unlucky number?
Do you use specific numbers to do the lottery, ie birthdays, anniversaries etc.?
