Question

In tally marks the symbol $\bcancel{\left|\right|\left|\right|}$ represents the number_____.

Answer 1

To make calculations easier, tally marks are used and tally marks are always recorded in bunches of five. The fifth tally mark is drawn diagonally across the first four to make a bunch of five.

So, the tally mark $\bcancel{\left|\right|\left|\right|}$ represents number $5$.
