Subtraction Color by Number Dinosaur | Kindergarten, 1st Grade ... - Free Printable

Problem Description:

The image provided is a color-by-number worksheet where the task involves solving subtraction problems and using the differences to color a dinosaur according to a given color key. The goal is to solve each subtraction problem, find the correct difference, and then use that difference to determine which color to apply to the corresponding section of the dinosaur.

Step-by-Step Solution:

#### 1. Understand the Color Key:
The color key at the bottom of the page assigns specific colors to certain numbers (differences). Here is the color key:
- Light Green: 10
- Change: 5
- Yellow: 6
- Red: 12
- Dark Green: 8
- Purple: 7

#### 2. Solve Each Subtraction Problem:
We need to solve all the subtraction problems on the dinosaur and find their differences. The problems are labeled on the dinosaur in various sections.

##### Problems and Solutions:
1. 15 - 5 = 10
- Difference: 10
- Color: Light Green

2. 13 - 8 = 5
- Difference: 5
- Color: Change

3. 14 - 8 = 6
- Difference: 6
- Color: Yellow

4. 15 - 7 = 8
- Difference: 8
- Color: Dark Green

5. 12 - 5 = 7
- Difference: 7
- Color: Purple

6. 16 - 6 = 10
- Difference: 10
- Color: Light Green

7. 13 - 5 = 8
- Difference: 8
- Color: Dark Green

8. 15 - 9 = 6
- Difference: 6
- Color: Yellow

9. 14 - 7 = 7
- Difference: 7
- Color: Purple

10. 12 - 6 = 6
- Difference: 6
- Color: Yellow

11. 13 - 6 = 7
- Difference: 7
- Color: Purple

12. 15 - 8 = 7
- Difference: 7
- Color: Purple

13. 14 - 6 = 8
- Difference: 8
- Color: Dark Green

14. 16 - 9 = 7
- Difference: 7
- Color: Purple

15. 13 - 7 = 6
- Difference: 6
- Color: Yellow

16. 15 - 9 = 6
- Difference: 6
- Color: Yellow

17. 14 - 8 = 6
- Difference: 6
- Color: Yellow

18. 12 - 4 = 8
- Difference: 8
- Color: Dark Green

19. 13 - 5 = 8
- Difference: 8
- Color: Dark Green

20. 15 - 7 = 8
- Difference: 8
- Color: Dark Green

#### 3. Color the Dinosaur:
Using the solutions above, we can now color the corresponding sections of the dinosaur based on the differences and the color key.

- Sections with a difference of 10: Light Green
- Sections with a difference of 5: Change
- Sections with a difference of 6: Yellow
- Sections with a difference of 8: Dark Green
- Sections with a difference of 7: Purple
- Sections with a difference of 12: Red (though there are no problems resulting in 12 in this worksheet)

#### Final Answer:
After solving all the subtraction problems and applying the correct colors, the dinosaur will be colored as follows:
- Light Green: Sections with differences of 10.
- Change: Sections with differences of 5.
- Yellow: Sections with differences of 6.
- Dark Green: Sections with differences of 8.
- Purple: Sections with differences of 7.
- Red: No sections (since no problem results in a difference of 12).

Thus, the final answer is the correctly colored dinosaur based on the solutions to the subtraction problems.

Final Answer:
\boxed{\text{See the colored dinosaur based on the solutions above.}}
