Match the Number
Count scattered objects, read ten-frames, and name shaded fractions · pick the number that matches what you see
About PlayMemorize Match the Number
Match the Number is a visual maths game with one simple rule: look at the picture, then pick the number that matches it. Build a streak by matching every picture correctly; one wrong answer ends the run.
Three kinds of picture, one skill. Early rounds show a handful of scattered objects to count one by one. As the counts grow, the objects line up in rows of five, so you can count groups instead of single items · the step from counting to skip-counting. Structured rounds use a ten-frame, the classic classroom grid whose filled cells make numbers up to twenty readable at a glance. And at higher difficulty the game switches to fractions: a bar or a disc is split into equal parts, some are shaded, and you name the fraction · three shaded parts of four is 3/4.
Honest by construction. Every picture is drawn from the exact value it is scored against, so counting carefully always wins · there are never two answers that could both be right, and wrong options are always plausible near-misses (one or two off for counts, a miscounted part for fractions) rather than wild guesses.
Gets harder as you go. Difficulty widens the kinds of picture (loose objects → ten-frames → fractions), raises the biggest counts toward twenty, brings in finer fraction splits (up to twelfths), and adds more answer options sitting closer together.

FAQ
-
What is Match the Number?
A visual maths game: a picture shows a quantity · scattered objects, a filled ten-frame, or a partly shaded shape · and you pick the number (or fraction) that matches it, building a streak as you go. -
What is a ten-frame?
A ten-frame is a two-by-five grid used in early maths teaching. Filled cells make quantities up to ten (or twenty, with two frames) readable as structure instead of one-by-one counting · you see "a full row of five and two more" rather than seven separate things. -
How do the fraction rounds work?
A bar or a disc is divided into equal parts and some parts are shaded. You pick the fraction that matches, like 3/4. Only proper fractions with equal partitions appear, and no two options ever share the same value, so exactly one answer is right. -
How does it get harder?
Higher difficulty moves from loose scattered objects to grouped rows, ten-frames, and finally fractions, while the counts grow toward twenty, fraction splits get finer, and more numeric options sit closer to the right answer. -
