Chris the Coyote sits under a tall pine.
"Here is a story about a fair swap," he says.
"Listen and check each side."
Oliver has 3 + 3 pinecones.
Rosie has 4 + 2 pinecones.
"Is that fair?" asks Rosie.
Oliver counts both piles. Each pile has 6.
"It is fair. 3 + 3 = 4 + 2," says Oliver.
The equal sign works with take away.
6 - 1 = 5. Both sides are 5.
8 - 2 = 3 + 3. Both sides are 6.
