Why do we have 5 fingers?

Im a freak. I have 10.

I have four fingers and a thumb

Most mammals have 4 or 5 digits on their hands and feet including our relatives the ape, their purpose is clear, just use your hands, see how it helps with holding and gripping things :)

One for every day of the week (sat and sun not included)

To have nice grip on objects that we hold!
As to show middle finger to suckers around us we got 5 fingers!

Technically it’s only 4 on each hand 🤭. But who’s counting. 🤪
We have opposable thumbs 😊

2 odds make an even ...:)

We don't. We have 10 unless someone chops one of our hands off. Lol :)

Because we don't have 4 fingers😂

So we can count in multiples of 10😊

Cuz we no simpson.

we have 4 and one thumb👍

Helps us count to ten

So that our gloves fit?

Some have 6 per hand

So we can count ta ten🙄

To grip better

We WHO?

In case someone has not said it yet....We do not have 5 fingers, we only have 4 four and one thumb. So that's 8 fingers and two thumbs.

It's purely so parents can use the Five Fingers of Tickle on their kids :)

10 actually but giid question. Well, there is no such profound explaination to it

The thumb is so we can pick up things, do multiple tasks I think

We need a middle finger and three would just be weird.

I have 8 fingers, 2 thumbs and 10 toes.

Some people lost them all in a tragic accident 😱

To get that five finger discount! 😅

so I can count to 21

I have 20 in total

So we can count silly😬

Because I wanted 5. lol

so we can wear gloves

It helps in math?🤔😉

So it matches our feet
