The rule, 4 worked examples.
- Adding ten: Keep the ones digit, raise the tens by one.
- n + 10
- 2 + 10 = 12
- 4 + 10 = 14

- What size does the Adding ten poster print at?
- Adding ten is a vector PDF laid out for US Letter, and prints on A4 with Fit to page — the same file, no separate download.
