Q: Take a bag of marbles and use these to visually see how addition works. For example, take five marbles out of the bag. Now take another three marbles out of the bag. Combine all the marbles together and count how many you have. You'll have eight marbles. That means that five plus three equals eight. Using this tactic can help you visual subtraction too. Try taking four marbles away from your pile of eight marbles. You'll end up with four marbles left. That means that eight minus four equals four. You can buy workbooks online or visit free websites that allow you to practice. You'll be presented with a table filled with all sorts of problems to solve everything from one plus one to seventeen plus fifteen and so on. If you are adding numbers that have multiple digits you can set them up on top of each other to make it easier to add. Consider the problem 21 plus 14. Draw the equation so that the 21 is sitting on top of the 14. Now draw a line underneath the 14. Adding down, add the final two numbers. In this case, those numbers would be the '1' from 21 and the '4' from 14. One plus four equals five, so you would write a five below the line you made under those two numbers. Now add the '2' from 21 and the '1' from 14. Two plus one equals three. Write the three under those two numbers to the left of the five that you just wrote. You should have the numbers 3 and 5 sittings next to each other below the line you drew. That means the answer to this problem is 35. 14 + 21 = 35. If you add two numbers together and they make another two digit number, take the one from that two digit number and move it over to the left. For example, if the problem was 14 + 28 instead your first calculation would be 8 + 4. This would give you 12. You would still put the '2' from 12 below the line underneath the 4 and the 8. However, the '1' from 12 would then be moved over to the left and added to the second equation. So you would add the '1' from 14, the '2' from 28 and the '1' from 12. That would give you the number 4 once you add all those numbers together. This means that 14 + 28 must equal 42. Pass the pigs is a popular game that has you roll tiny ceramic pigs on a table. Based on the way that they land, you earn a certain amount of points. You only play to 100 so the numbers never get too high, but it's a great way to learn basic addition. It's much better than doing addition tables for hours!
A: Use objects to count out the math visually. Practice your addition and subtraction tables. Start by adding the final digits of both numbers together. Play games with simple math.

Article: Your friend needs to use a piece of chalk or a pencil to make the markings on the wall. Ensure that the points where your middle fingers hit the wall are measured and not any other fingers, as otherwise, this will give an inaccurate result. Your middle fingers are used for measuring your reach because they are your longest fingers. Use a tape measure to measure straight against the wall. Start at the first marking that your friend made and measure directly to the second marking. Make sure that the tape measure isn't angled or twisted while you are using it, as this may give an inaccurate result. The measurement is your reach. It can be helpful to get your friend to help you hold the tape measure. It's important to record your reach straight away in case you forget it! Write it down on a piece of paper or record it on a device like a smartphone or a laptop. Alternatively, you can get your friend to record it for you. If you are uncertain about your measurement, simply take it again to be sure that you have an accurate result. Make sure that you record the correct units. Reach is usually measured in either inches or centimeters, depending on if your country uses the imperial or metric system of measurement.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Get your friend to mark the points that your middle fingers reach on the wall. Measure the distance between the 2 points on the wall. Record your reach in the appropriate units.

Problem: Article: Prevention is always the best course of action for any ailment and, of course, avoiding sunburns in the first place is the best way to keep your skin healthy. Avoid exposing yourself to direct sun for long periods of time. Try to stay in areas that provide shade, such as under a balcony overhang, umbrella, or tree. The American Academy of Dermatology recommends that you use at least SPF 30 or higher of a broad-spectrum sunscreen that covers UVA and UVB rays. Both of these types of UV radiation can cause cancer. Many doctors will recommend these guidelines to their patients. Note that babies have particularly delicate skin, and need to have sunscreen applied all over their body (only after they are six months old). You can buy both baby and child-friendly sunscreens. It is important to apply sunscreen 30 minutes before going outside, not immediately prior. Make sure to reapply your sunscreen regularly. Generally, a good rule of thumb is to reapply 30 milliliters (1floz) all over the body every three hours, or after any activity that involves the skin getting very wet (i.e. after getting out of a pool). Don't be fooled by cold weather. UV rays can still pass through clouds, and snow reflects 80% of them. Be extra careful if you live close to the equator, or somewhere high in altitude. UV rays are much stronger in those areas due to ozone depletion. Not only does water affect the effectiveness of topical sunscreens, but wet skin in general is more susceptible to UV damage than dry skin. Use waterproof sunscreen when going to the beach or pool, or when exercising heavily outside. If swimming or sweating heavily, you should apply sunscreen more frequently than usual. Wear hats, visors, sunglasses, and anything else you can think of to shield your skin from the sun's rays. You can even purchase UV-block clothing. Try to stay out of the sun during the hours of 10a.m. to 4p.m., when sun is highest in the sky. This is when the sunlight is most direct, and the UV rays are therefore more damaging. If you can't avoid the sun entirely, seek share whenever possible. Drinking water is important for replenishing fluids, as well as combating dehydration, another serious and common consequence of extended sun exposure. Be sure to stay hydrated and drink water regularly when you are outdoors in heavy heat and sunlight exposure. Do not drink water only when you are thirsty, but give your body the nutrients and resources it needs to keep you healthy prior to issues arising.
Summary: Stay out of the sun. Wear sunscreen. Be careful in the water. Wear protective clothing. Avoid the sun at certain times of the day. Drink water.

Q: Remember at all times, that you are angry. You don't like authority, cops, parents, bosses, whatever. Do what the hell you want. Punk shows in the 80s were famous for anger. Remember, a 80s punk show is one where you can throw a beer bottle in the air and not care where it comes down. Hang out with others like you. Nothing says punk like hanging out drinking a brew on a street corner with your fellow punks. In the 80s punks had the reputation of being a bit dumb or uneducated, mostly because they were young. You, however, are more street smart and wiser about the ways of the world. The 2000s are a less innocent time. So fight the stereotype of a dumb punk by reading up on your anarchist literature and quote Alan Watts at them until their heads spin. Haters gonna hate, but that doesn't mean you have to embrace the stereotype of the dumb punk. There is some chance you decide not to be a punk anymore, so you want to be able to go back.
A:
Have the attitude. Fight the stereotype. Don't shun your pre punk friends.
