Subtraction on the number line
Like addition, we can also subtract on the number line.
For example, from 7, take away 4.
Start from 7 and jump 4 steps backward. You reach 3.
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
7 – 4 = 3
Use the number line to do these subtractions.
From 8, take away 3.
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
8 – 3 =
From 9, take away 2.
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
9 – 2 =
From 6, take away 5.
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
6 – 5 =
59
