yeah, adding twelve to a single-digit number really does make my brain freeze like that. Something something can’t do math under pressure.

That’s OK, champ.

This might help you: you’re not adding 12 to a single-digit number. Just do 2 + x then throw a 1 in front, or add 10. Whichever is easier to conceptualize. (Where x is the single-digit number, in case that needed clarifying)
