Jada knows a way to count on to find the difference. She shows her thinking, using a number line.
Explain Jada’s thinking.
Jada says she can’t decompose to find the value of , because there aren’t any tens. Do you agree? Show your thinking, using objects, drawings, numbers, or words.
Activity 2
Find It Your Way
Find the value of each expression in a way that makes sense to you. Show your thinking, using drawings, numbers, or words.
Student Section Summary
We learned ways to subtract 3-digit numbers, using place value. We used base-ten blocks, diagrams, and equations to subtract hundreds from hundreds, tens from tens, and ones from ones. We decomposed a hundred, a ten, or both to subtract by place. We looked closely at numbers in expressions. We planned how to decompose. We used friendly numbers or the relationship between addition and subtraction.
