KARIMNAGAR, APRIL 16, 2025: One will be in cold sweat upon being asked to solve 200 sums in eight minutes. But for these young mathematicians, it is not a herculean task.
Students from the Bhagavathi High School and Arvintree High School in Karimnagar town were awarded in the first position at the Abacus competitions conducted in association with Oliver Abacus on Wednesday.
In the competition, the child was given 200 questions to solve in less than eight minutes. The degree of accuracy in accordance with time was the basis for clearing the test.
Congratulating the students for their participation in the Abacus training and competitions, Schools Chairman B Ramana Rao said, “There are no god gifted brains. Every brain can do ‘n’ number of calculations in a short time. We use the ancient method of abacus calculation. The abacus is moved with finger finger-moving technique. This is a concept of memory where numbers are converted to images through an abacus. Mathematics is everywhere around us. The technique enhances one’s logical reasoning, memory and concentration”.
