EXERCISE 2I
Solve. Use the simpler number strategy if you need to.

a) Find the number that is 8392 less than 15,896


Sometimes when the numbers in a problem sum are large or the words are
confusing, we donot know how to solve them . It helps to think of the problem
again using smaller numbers.
Think: Take 5 instead of 8392 and 8 instead of 15,896
Find the number that is 5
less than 8. The answer is
3! So you have to
subtract.

Solve the actual sum.


Answer : 7504 is 8392 less than 15,896
1 5 8 9 6
- 8 3 9 2
7 5 0 4
b) Find the number that is 9284 more than 18,394.
Think: Take 4 instead of 9284 and 9 instead of 18,394

Find the number that is 4


more than 9. The answer
is 13! So you have to add.

Solve the actual sum.

9 2 8 4
Answer : 27678 is 9284 more than 18,394
+ 1 8 3 9 4
2 7 6 7 8
c) Find the number that is 1,260 less than 7,296.

Do it yourself

.
d) How much smaller is 3,698 than 21,065?
Think: Take 3 instead of 3,698 and 7 instead of 21,065.

How much smaller is 3


than 7. The answer is 4!
So you have to subtract.

Solve the actual sum.

Answer : ________ is 3698 smaller than 21,065


e) By how much is 43,462 less than 50,693?
Think: Take 8 instead of 43,462 and 10 instead of 50,693.

By how much is 8 less


than 10. The answer is 2!
So you have to subtract .

Solve the actual sum.

the difference is 4?
You have to subtract 4
from 9. The answer is 5!

Solve the actual sum.

6 4 9 3 2
- 1 3 8 9 4
Answer : __________ should be subtracted from 64,932 so
that the difference is 13,894.
g) What will be the difference if the sum of 9,146 and 2,934 is subtracted from 23,891?
Sol. First find the sum and then subtract
Sum means add Difference means subtract
1 1
9 1 4 6 2 3 8 9 1
+ 2 9 3 4 - 1 2 0 8 0
1 2 0 8 0 1 1 8 1 1

Answer : The difference is 11811
