    The answers you have are correct.

    add is +

    subtract is -

    multiply is *

    and

    divide is /

    Examples: -

    6+3 is 9

    6-3 is 3

    6*3 is18

    6/3 is 2

    If you have a calculator it usually works using the same symbols.

    Even works on most Mobile phones that have calculators.

    Use the slash "/"

    =8/4

    =B23/5

    To multiply, use the asterisk "*"

    =8*4
