Section 2: Subtraction (පහත සංඛ්‍යා අඩු කරන්න)



Step-by-step Calculation:
1. 14 - 4: Take 4 away from 14. The answer is 10.
2. 18 - 3: Take 3 away from 18. $8 - 3 = 5$, so the answer is 15.
3. 16 - 5: Take 5 away from 16. $6 - 5 = 1$, so the answer is 11.
4. 18 - 6: Take 6 away from 18. $8 - 6 = 2$, so the answer is 12.
5. 15 - 2: Take 2 away from 15. $5 - 2 = 3$, so the answer is 13.
6. 13 - 6: Take 6 away from 13. The answer is 7.
7. 11 - 5: Take 5 away from 11. The answer is 6.
8. 16 - 4: Take 4 away from 16. $6 - 4 = 2$, so the answer is 12.
9. 15 - 6: Take 6 away from 15. The answer is 9.
10. 17 - 5: Take 5 away from 17. $7 - 5 = 2$, so the answer is 12.

Section 3: Fill in the Blanks (හිස් තැන් පුරවන්න)



Step-by-step Logic:
* For questions like $A - B = \square$, simply subtract B from A.
* For questions like $A - \square = C$, find what number you must take away from A to get C. You can do this by calculating $A - C$.
* For questions like $\square - B = C$, add B and C together to find the starting number.

1. $7 - 2 = \mathbf{5}$
2. $8 - 8 = \mathbf{0}$
3. $6 - \mathbf{2} = 4$ (Because $6 - 4 = 2$)
4. $12 - \mathbf{9} = 3$ (Because $12 - 3 = 9$)
5. $17 - 8 = \mathbf{9}$
6. $11 - \mathbf{7} = 4$ (Because $11 - 4 = 7$)
7. $18 - \mathbf{8} = 10$ (Because $18 - 10 = 8$)
8. $\mathbf{17} - 5 = 12$ (Because $12 + 5 = 17$)
9. $16 - \mathbf{8} = 8$ (Because $16 - 8 = 8$)
10. $\mathbf{13} - 4 = 9$ (Because $9 + 4 = 13$)

Section 4: Word Problems (ගැටලු විසඳන්න)



Logic: Read the story, identify the starting number, identify what is taken away, and subtract to find the remainder.

1. Story: 17 flowers total. 6 were given away.
* Calculation: $17 - 6 = 11$
* Answer: 11 flowers remain.

2. Story: 13 books total. 9 were read.
* Calculation: $13 - 9 = 4$
* Answer: 4 books remain unread.

3. Story: 18 balls total. 3 were lost.
* Calculation: $18 - 3 = 15$
* Answer: 15 balls remain.

4. Story: 16 pencils total. 8 were used.
* Calculation: $16 - 8 = 8$
* Answer: 8 pencils remain.
