Work
Explain your reasoning
40-15+23 _____________________________________
First, I had to take away 15 from 40. Then she added back
_____________________________________
23, so I had to add 23 to my answer.

40-15=25 25+23= 48

6. A student is practicing addition and subtraction problems. For one of the problems,

she gets a difference of 8. Which problem was she trying to solve?

A. 7 + 2 =

B. 5 + 2 =

C. 11 - 3 =

D. 15 - 8 =

7. Mary was asked to solve a math problem using mental math strategies. To make the

problem easier to solve, she added one to both numbers to get a new easier problem.

The answer to the new problem is 5, so she figured that the answer to her original

problem also equals 5. Which problem was she asked to solve?

A. 4 + 1 because one added to both numbers is 5 + 2. Both problems equal 5.

B. 10 - 5 because one added to both numbers is 11 - 4. Both problems equal 5.

C. 14 - 9 because one added to both numbers is 15 - 10. Both problems equal 5.

D. 15 - 10 because one added to both numbers is 14 - 9. Both problems equal 5.

Create a fact family using the following:

Fact Family

8+7=15

7+8=15

15-7=8

15-8=7

Explain why this works.

I know this works, because the numbers are all related and can be switched around to create 2

Consider the number below.

51

If four tens and two ones are added to this number, what would the new number be?

Explain how you found your answer.

Work Explain your thinking

51+42= 93 ___________________________________
Four tens and two ones is the number 42. I added 51 and
42 together. I added my ones and got 3, and I added my
___________________________________
tens and got 9. That makes 93.
