Unlike the picture, there are no decimals. The rightmost column is the unit column.
Hi, the abacus is Chinese invention, not japanese !!!
i never made any claim to who invented the abacus. i'm just clarifying that this problem pertains to the japanese soroban, which is specifically designed for base-10 arithmetic.
