#### Basic Math Lessons

Basic math skills form the foundation for more advanced mathematical concepts. These skills
include addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. Let's explore each of these operations
and provide some examples.

**Addition**:
Addition is the process of combining two or more numbers to find their sum. The symbol used
for addition is "+". Here's an example:

**Example 1**: Add 5 and 3.


```
5+3=8
```

**Subtraction**:
Subtraction is the process of finding the difference between two numbers. The symbol used for
subtraction is "-". Here's an example:

**Example 2**: Subtract 7 from 12.


```
12 - 7 = 5
```

**Multiplication**:
Multiplication is the process of repeated addition. The symbol used for multiplication is "×" or "*".
Here's an example:

**Example 3**: Multiply 4 by 6.


```
4 × 6 = 24
```

**Division**:
Division is the process of splitting a number into equal parts or finding how many times one
number can be divided by another. The symbol used for division is "÷" or "/". Here's an example:

**Example 4**: Divide 15 by 3.


```
15 ÷ 3 = 5
```

These basic math operations are fundamental and are used in various mathematical concepts
and problem-solving situations. Practice is essential for mastering these skills. You can find
interactive resources, worksheets, and video lessons on websites like Math Goodies, Khan
Academy, and Math Antics to help you practice and improve your basic math skills.
