This interactive worksheet allows you to customize your learning experience by selecting the number of digits (1, 2, or 3) for the two numbers (minuend and subtrahend) to be subtracted from each other.
For an added challenge, you have the option to exclude 0s and 1s from the two numbers. Additionally, you can choose to 'Swap the numbers to get only positive answers', focusing on obtaining positive final results. If unchecked, the problems will present a mix of both positive and negative numbers as the final answers.
The Split & Subtract method is a proven mental maths technique to handle this kind of subtraction problems. With this approach, you can confidently perform subtractions directly in your minds, without the need for writing anything down. The method involves splitting one of the numbers into manageable components, which simplifies the subtraction process. By starting with the larger split part and subtracting the smaller split part from it, you can efficiently work towards the final result.
