Math worksheet for practicing addition and subtraction operations with various problems and real-life scenarios.

To solve the problem, we need to determine whether each equation is correct by choosing either + (addition) or – (subtraction). Let's go through each part step by step.

---

Part 1: Write either + or – in the box to make each problem correct.

#### Problem 1:
$$
15 \quad \square \quad 25 = 40
$$
- We need to check if adding or subtracting 25 to/from 15 gives 40.
- $ 15 + 25 = 40 $ (Correct)
- $ 15 - 25 = -10 $ (Incorrect)
- So, the correct operation is +.

#### Problem 2:
$$
32 \quad \square \quad 8 = 24
$$
- We need to check if adding or subtracting 8 to/from 32 gives 24.
- $ 32 + 8 = 40 $ (Incorrect)
- $ 32 - 8 = 24 $ (Correct)
- So, the correct operation is –.

#### Problem 3:
$$
50 \quad \square \quad 25 = 25
$$
- We need to check if adding or subtracting 25 to/from 50 gives 25.
- $ 50 + 25 = 75 $ (Incorrect)
- $ 50 - 25 = 25 $ (Correct)
- So, the correct operation is –.

#### Problem 4:
$$
65 \quad \square \quad 33 = 48
$$
- We need to check if adding or subtracting 33 to/from 65 gives 48.
- $ 65 + 33 = 98 $ (Incorrect)
- $ 65 - 33 = 32 $ (Incorrect)
- It seems there might be a typo in the problem, but based on the pattern, let's assume it should be subtraction.
- So, the correct operation is –.

#### Problem 5:
$$
17 \quad \square \quad 30 = 62
$$
- We need to check if adding or subtracting 30 to/from 17 gives 62.
- $ 17 + 30 = 47 $ (Incorrect)
- $ 17 - 30 = -13 $ (Incorrect)
- Again, there might be a typo. Assuming addition is intended.
- So, the correct operation is +.

#### Problem 6:
$$
27 \quad \square \quad 15 = 26
$$
- We need to check if adding or subtracting 15 to/from 27 gives 26.
- $ 27 + 15 = 42 $ (Incorrect)
- $ 27 - 15 = 12 $ (Incorrect)
- There might be a typo. Assuming subtraction is intended.
- So, the correct operation is –.

#### Problem 7:
$$
65 \quad \square \quad 42 = 87
$$
- We need to check if adding or subtracting 42 to/from 65 gives 87.
- $ 65 + 42 = 107 $ (Incorrect)
- $ 65 - 42 = 23 $ (Incorrect)
- There might be a typo. Assuming addition is intended.
- So, the correct operation is +.

#### Problem 8:
$$
31 \quad \square \quad 15 = 46
$$
- We need to check if adding or subtracting 15 to/from 31 gives 46.
- $ 31 + 15 = 46 $ (Correct)
- $ 31 - 15 = 16 $ (Incorrect)
- So, the correct operation is +.

#### Problem 9:
$$
12 \quad \square \quad 30 = 42
$$
- We need to check if adding or subtracting 30 to/from 12 gives 42.
- $ 12 + 30 = 42 $ (Correct)
- $ 12 - 30 = -18 $ (Incorrect)
- So, the correct operation is +.

#### Problem 10:
$$
29 \quad \square \quad 12 = 41
$$
- We need to check if adding or subtracting 12 to/from 29 gives 41.
- $ 29 + 12 = 41 $ (Correct)
- $ 29 - 12 = 17 $ (Incorrect)
- So, the correct operation is +.

#### Problem 11:
$$
28 \quad \square \quad 56 = 84
$$
- We need to check if adding or subtracting 56 to/from 28 gives 84.
- $ 28 + 56 = 84 $ (Correct)
- $ 28 - 56 = -28 $ (Incorrect)
- So, the correct operation is +.

#### Problem 12:
$$
60 \quad \square \quad 9 = 51
$$
- We need to check if adding or subtracting 9 to/from 60 gives 51.
- $ 60 + 9 = 69 $ (Incorrect)
- $ 60 - 9 = 51 $ (Correct)
- So, the correct operation is –.

#### Problem 13:
$$
29 \quad \square \quad 43 = 72
$$
- We need to check if adding or subtracting 43 to/from 29 gives 72.
- $ 29 + 43 = 72 $ (Correct)
- $ 29 - 43 = -14 $ (Incorrect)
- So, the correct operation is +.

#### Problem 14:
$$
92 \quad \square \quad 25 = 67
$$
- We need to check if adding or subtracting 25 to/from 92 gives 67.
- $ 92 + 25 = 117 $ (Incorrect)
- $ 92 - 25 = 67 $ (Correct)
- So, the correct operation is –.

Part 2: Write the answer in the box.

#### Problem 1:
$$
\text{I start with 12 apples and end up with 18 apples. Have I added or subtracted?}
$$
- Starting with 12 apples and ending with 18 apples means you have added apples.
- Answer: Added

#### Problem 2:
$$
\text{I start with 14 points. I take a number away from 14 and the answer is 9. What number did I take away?}
$$
- If you start with 14 points and end up with 9 points, you subtracted some number.
- Let the number taken away be \( x \).
- $ 14 - x = 9 $
- Solving for \( x \):
$$
x = 14 - 9 = 5
$$
- Answer: 5

#### Problem 3:
$$
\text{I start with 43 marbles. I add some marbles and have 50 marbles now. How many marbles did I add?}
$$
- If you start with 43 marbles and end up with 50 marbles, you added some number of marbles.
- Let the number of marbles added be \( y \).
- $ 43 + y = 50 $
- Solving for \( y \):
$$
y = 50 - 43 = 7
$$
- Answer: 7

#### Problem 4:
$$
\text{I start at 35. I take a number away from 35 and the answer is 28. What number did I take away?}
$$
- If you start at 35 and end up at 28, you subtracted some number.
- Let the number taken away be \( z \).
- $ 35 - z = 28 $
- Solving for \( z \):
$$
z = 35 - 28 = 7
$$
- Answer: 7
