It is easy. Try this:
1. type figure 3 (from the row above 'qwertyuiop[]' and NOT from the numbers on the right set/block).
2. Select it (only '3')
3. Change the font to 'Dixieland' (It should be installed in your PC)
Try it.
Dixieland is a set of characters with all sorts of symbols and marks.

Hopefully, someone (member) will come out with the correct and to the point solution to your problem. I also do not have any idea. (In case of no solution...you may use black pen for tick marking or for cross marking).
