Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know whether to add or subtract in a word problem?
If the question asks for a total, combined amount, or how many altogether, you should add. If it asks how much is left, what is the difference, or how many more, you should subtract.
What is regrouping in addition?
Regrouping happens when the sum in the Ones column is 10 or more. You write theones digit below and carry over the tens digit to the Tens column.
How can I check if my subtraction answer is correct?
You can check your answer by adding your result to the smaller number; if it equals the starting large number, your subtraction is correct.
