Serious Subtraction



Serious Subtraction

We are learning to solve subtraction problems using whole and decimal numbers.




Times Table Practice:




3 x 3 = 9 5 x 5 = 25 8 x 7 =56 12 x 10 = 120 4 x 6 = 24 5 x 7 = 35 2 x 4 = 8 3 x 8 =24 9 x 8 =72 4 x 7 =36 9 x 7 = 63




345 + 385 = 730




847 + 126 = 973




674 + 586 = 1260






Your sister gives you $125 to spend on lollies. If you spend $65 how much money would you have left over?120-60=80/80-10=70




She then gives you $234 more. How much money do you have now?

70 + 234=304






Pt England school are buying new sports gear. There is $500 in the sports budget.




They first purchase a basketball hoop for $50 How much money does is left?

50-500=450




They then buy a net for $25. How much do they have left?

450-25=425




Then they buy three tennis balls. Each ball costs $3. How much do they have left?

3x3=9

425-9=416




Finally they buy a netball hoop which costs $100. How much is left in the budget at the end?

416-100=316




Troy has $100 in his wallet. He spends $65.50 on a new PS4 game. How much money does he have left?

100-60=40

40-5.50= 34.5

  2. Hi, my name is Angela and I am a student who attends Paihia School. I just finished reading your Serious Subtraction Blog Post and it was amazing. It was amazing because you showed your viewers your working out it shows that you have learnt something and that you have worked the problems out. Maybe next time you could tell us why your posting this blog post. What strategy did you use for subtraction? What strategy would you use for addition and multiplication? Have a great day!
