matilda ch5

do you mean 'Arithmetic'? i am not really sure of your question.

i will try to help you as i have the book right next to me.

Matilda's dad came home and boasted about how much he had made that day. He told his son Harry to add up how much he had made. Harry was trying to do the sums on paper. Matilda could do the sums in her head and came up with the correct amount. However, her father didn't believe her and said she was a cheat and a liar.

i hope i have answered your question and hope you will read the chapter by yourself. It is not as difficult as you think.
