Let’s solve each math problem in the picture step by step. We’ll add or subtract the numbers to find the answer for each one. Then we’ll match that number to the color code at the bottom.

Step 1: Solve all the math problems
We’ll go through each expression:
-
8 + 6 = 14
-
16 - 3 = 13
-
8 + 8 = 16
-
3 + 8 = 11
-
13 - 2 = 11
-
12 + 2 = 14
-
7 + 7 = 14
-
5 + 9 = 14
-
4 + 7 = 11
-
18 - 5 = 13
-
3 + 9 = 12
-
10 + 5 = 15
-
11 + 4 = 15
-
17 - 2 = 15
-
5 + 8 = 13
-
6 + 6 = 12
-
4 + 8 = 12
-
7 + 9 = 16
-
2 + 13 = 15
-
6 + 7 = 13
-
18 - 3 = 15
-
16 - 1 = 15
-
19 - 6 = 13
-
13 + 2 = 15
-
15 - 2 = 13
-
17 - 2 = 15 (already done above)
-
19 - 4 = 15
Wait — let’s double-check a few to be sure:
- 8+6 → 8+2=10, +4 more = 14
✔
- 16-3 → 16-2=14, -1 more = 13
✔
- 8+8 → 8+8=16
✔
- 3+8 → 3+7=10, +1=11
✔
- 13-2 → 13-1=12, -1=11
✔
- 12+2 → 14
✔
- 7+7 → 14
✔
- 5+9 → 5+5=10, +4=14
✔
- 4+7 → 4+6=10, +1=11
✔
- 18-5 → 18-3=15, -2=13
✔
- 3+9 → 3+7=10, +2=12
✔
- 10+5 → 15
✔
- 11+4 → 15
✔
- 17-2 → 15
✔
- 5+8 → 5+5=10, +3=13
✔
- 6+6 → 12
✔
- 4+8 → 4+6=10, +2=12
✔
- 7+9 → 7+3=10, +6=16
✔
- 2+13 → 15
✔
- 6+7 → 6+4=10, +3=13
✔
- 18-3 → 15
✔
- 16-1 → 15
✔
- 19-6 → 19-5=14, -1=13
✔
- 13+2 → 15
✔
- 15-2 → 13
✔
- 19-4 → 15
✔
All correct!

Step 2: Match answers to colors using the key
Color Key:
- 16 = red
- 15 = green
- 14 = blue
- 13 = yellow
- 12 = grey
- 11 = brown
Now assign colors based on each result:
→
16: red → appears in: 8+8, 7+9
→
15: green → appears in: 10+5, 11+4, 17-2, 2+13, 18-3, 16-1, 13+2, 19-4, and also 17-2 again (duplicate)
→
14: blue → appears in: 8+6, 12+2, 7+7, 5+9
→
13: yellow → appears in: 16-3, 18-5, 5+8, 6+7, 19-6, 15-2
→
12: grey → appears in: 3+9, 6+6, 4+8
→
11: brown → appears in: 3+8, 13-2, 4+7

Final Answer:
Each section of the drawing should be colored according to the result of its math problem:
- Color sections with answer
16 →
red
- Color sections with answer
15 →
green
- Color sections with answer
14 →
blue
- Color sections with answer
13 →
yellow
- Color sections with answer
12 →
grey
- Color sections with answer
11 →
brown
You can now color the cat, clouds, mushrooms, path, etc., based on which math problem is inside each part!
