About this worksheet

Each sheet contains 20, 25 or 30 problems (your choice) and is generated at random. Press “New problems” as many times as you like; there is no limit and no account needed.

Worked example

877−295 
  1. Ones: 7 − 5 = 2.
  2. Tens: 7 is smaller than 9, so borrow 1 from the hundreds: 17 − 9 = 8.
  3. Hundreds: 7 (the 8 became 7 after lending 1) − 2 = 5.
  4. Check: 582 + 295 = 877.

Answer: 582

Teaching tips

  • Check each answer with addition.
