Thanks to all who have responded so far. Very interesting answers. I'm primarily interested in how the "answers" to single-digit addition/subtraction combinations "pop" in to our mind... how these discreet "facts" are stored and retrieved.

The other, more complex, strategies involve problem-solving techniques, and are interesting, but how different people retrieve the simple "facts" from their own customProperty containers is what I'm most curious about. If these require problem-solving in some cases, so much the better. Some "facts" appear to be recalculated each time for some people.

I also miswrote when I said "hear" 9 + 7.  I meant hear or see.

Thanks again.
Mark

I think I'm a mixture of what most people have posted so far... for single
digit numbers, the answer just "pops" in because I've memorized it.
