Monkeys do maths

Scientists teach monkeys to do maths

The monkeys were rewarded as before, which should have motivated them to pick the larger value, 'New Scientist' reported. Researchers found that the monkeys chose the larger number between 70 and 90 per cent of the time. They were even able to repeat the success after learning a second, totally new set of symbols.
