### note

A strong total cue: join the parts (add), or multiply when the parts are equal groups. Trap: it can follow a removal, as in «how many are left altogether», which is still subtraction first. Do not mix «altogether» (in total, completely) with «all together» (everyone in one place or at once: «Sing all together!»).
