Let's solve the worksheet step by step. The goal is to
find the missing number in each addition problem so that the sum equals
1000.
We are adding
whole hundreds (like 100, 200, 300, etc.) to reach 1000.

🔢 Strategy:
To find the missing number:
>
Missing number = 1000 − Given number
We'll apply this for each problem.

✔ Solutions:
1) $ 700 + \_\_\_\_\_\_ = 1000 $
$ 1000 - 700 = 300 $
→
300
2) $ \_\_\_\_\_\_ + 900 = 1000 $
$ 1000 - 900 = 100 $
→
100
3) $ 500 + \_\_\_\_\_\_ = 1000 $
$ 1000 - 500 = 500 $
→
500

🧠 Explanation:
This worksheet helps students understand
how numbers add up to 1000, especially when working with multiples of 100. It reinforces subtraction as the inverse of addition and builds number sense around benchmark numbers like 1000.
For example:
- If you know 700 + ? = 1000, think: "How many more do I need to get from 700 to 1000?" That’s 300.
- Or use subtraction: 1000 – 700 = 300.
This skill is essential for mental math and future work with larger numbers.
