Help! Can someone please explain how to solve this problem. We are struggling to not use two nines. I know I have to be missing something but can’t figure it out!
THANKS!
I start figuring number with the thousands first, then hundreds and so on. I considered if I would need columns to regroup. Got I right away to exactly 10,000
3749 + 6251.
Bro it’s easy enough just do1000-342=!
We found 1,000-876 = 124
You have a one in the subtraction and a one in the answer. :/
Ms. Foley, you can’t have two ones in it
1000 – 876 = 234
1000-876=124
I’m not sure if you can or can’t reuse the same numbers in the difference, but if you can then you could do 5,000 minus 367 equals 633.
*5,000 minus 367 equals 4633
Help please!I don’t know how to answer the question.
