SUBTRACTION
• Travel by 10’s from small number to
bigger number.

1) 28 - 17 = ?
2) 47 – 33 = ?
3) 99 – 58 = ?
4) 68 - 85 = ?
5) 89 - 62 = ?
Answer
1. 28 – 17 =?

17 + 10 = 27 (17 is small number)

Remaining 1 needed to get the question, so
add 1 with 10
The answer is 11
Answer
2. 47 – 33 = ?

33 = 10 = 43
Remaining 4 needed to get the question, so
add 10 + 4
The answer is 14
Answer
3. 99 – 58 = ?

58 + 10 = 68
68 + 10 = 78
78 + 10 = 88
88 + 10 = 98
Remaining 1 needed to get the question.
Already we have travelled 4 times 10’s
So, 40 + 1 = 41
Answer
4. 68 - 85 = ?

68 + 10 = 78
78 + 10 = 88
Here, while travelling 2 times 10,
3 exceeded the question.
So, subtract 3 from 20.
The answer is 17.
Answer
5. 89 - 62 = ?

62 + 10 = 72
72 + 10 = 82
82 + 10 = 92
Here, while travelling 3 times 10,
3 exceeded the question.
So, subtract 3 from 30.
The answer is 27.
