Worked examples

Real problems from the practice worksheets, solved one step at a time.

  1. Example 1

    6 + ? = 10

    1. A number bond joins two parts to make a whole. The whole is 10 and one part is 6.
    2. To find the missing part, take the known part away from the whole: 10 − 6.
    3. So the missing part is 4.

    Answer: 4

  2. Example 2

    2 + 2 = ?

    1. A number bond joins two parts to make a whole. Here the two parts are 2 and 2.
    2. To find the whole, put the parts together: 2 + 2.
    3. So the whole is 4.

    Answer: 4

  3. Example 3

    ? + 5 = 10

    1. A number bond joins two parts to make a whole. The whole is 10 and one part is 5.
    2. To find the missing part, take the known part away from the whole: 10 − 5.
    3. So the missing part is 5.

    Answer: 5
