What this activity builds
Subtract two-digit numbers with controlled final digits and explain the resulting place-value pattern.
Worked example
What is 47 − 27?
20
Both numbers contain 7 ones, so those equal ones cancel. Four tens minus two tens leaves two tens.
Teaching notes
Make the practice count
- Highlight the shared ending before solving.
- Include different endings later so learners do not assume every answer is a multiple of ten.
