Let's solve the "Before, After and Between" worksheet step by step.
The goal is to fill in the missing numbers based on their position:
-
Before: The number that comes immediately before the given number.
-
After: The number that comes immediately after the given number.
-
Between: The number that comes between two given numbers.
We'll go through each row:
---
Column 1: Before (the number before the given number)
1. `__, 9` → Number before 9 =
8
2. `__, 4` → Number before 4 =
3
3. `__, 5` → Number before 5 =
4
4. `__, 10` → Number before 10 =
9
5. `__, 6` → Number before 6 =
5
6. `__, 7` → Number before 7 =
6
7. `__, 3` → Number before 3 =
2
8. `__, 8` → Number before 8 =
7
✔ Column 1 answers:
8, 3, 4, 9, 5, 6, 2, 7
---
Column 2: Between (the number between two given numbers)
1. `2, __, 4` → Between 2 and 4 =
3
2. `4, __, 6` → Between 4 and 6 =
5
3. `6, __, 8` → Between 6 and 8 =
7
4. `3, __, 5` → Between 3 and 5 =
4
5. `9, __, 11` → Between 9 and 11 =
10
6. `5, __, 7` → Between 5 and 7 =
6
7. `7, __, 9` → Between 7 and 9 =
8
8. `1, __, 3` → Between 1 and 3 =
2
✔ Column 2 answers:
3, 5, 7, 4, 10, 6, 8, 2
---
Column 3: After (the number after the given number)
1. `5, __` → After 5 =
6
2. `7, __` → After 7 =
8
3. `6, __` → After 6 =
7
4. `2, __` → After 2 =
3
5. `8, __` → After 8 =
9
6. `9, __` → After 9 =
10
7. `3, __` → After 3 =
4
8. `4, __` → After 4 =
5
✔ Column 3 answers:
6, 8, 7, 3, 9, 10, 4, 5
---
✔ Final Answer Grid:
```
8, 9 2, 3, 4 5, 6
3, 4 4, 5, 6 7, 8
4, 5 6, 7, 8 6, 7
9, 10 3, 4, 5 2, 3
5, 6 9, 10, 11 8, 9
6, 7 5, 6, 7 9, 10
2, 3 7, 8, 9 3, 4
7, 8 1, 2, 3 4, 5
```
So, the completed worksheet looks like this:
```
Before, After and Between
Fill in the numbers Before, After and Between
8, 9 2, 3, 4 5, 6
3, 4 4, 5, 6 7, 8
4, 5 6, 7, 8 6, 7
9, 10 3, 4, 5 2, 3
5, 6 9, 10, 11 8, 9
6, 7 5, 6, 7 9, 10
2, 3 7, 8, 9 3, 4
7, 8 1, 2, 3 4, 5
```

Before: Subtract 1 from the given number.
-
After: Add 1 to the given number.
-
