Let's solve the subtraction problems in the image step by step.
We have a grid of 12 subtraction problems. Each problem is in the form:
```
a
- b
?
```
We need to subtract the bottom number from the top number.
---
First Row:
1.
6 - 2 = 4
2.
5 - 3 = 2
3.
4 - 1 = 3
4.
10 - 2 = 8
---
Second Row:
5.
9 - 7 = 2
6.
7 - 3 = 4
7.
6 - 1 = 5
8.
5 - 3 = 2
---
Third Row:
9.
10 - 9 = 1
10.
8 - 3 = 5
11.
7 - 2 = 5
12.
9 - 6 = 3
---
Final Answers (in order):
Row 1: 4, 2, 3, 8
Row 2: 2, 4, 5, 2
Row 3: 1, 5, 5, 3

Now, looking at the top of the image: there are numbers
1,
2, and
3 floating above the scene — possibly indicating a pattern or hint. But since the task is just to solve the subtraction problems, we've done that.
If the goal is to match answers to those numbers, perhaps it's about grouping or identifying which results are 1, 2, or 3.
Let’s count how many times each result appears:
-
1: appears once (10 - 9)
-
2: appears four times (6 - 2, 9 - 7, 5 - 3, 5 - 3)
-
3: appears three times (4 - 1, 7 - 2, 9 - 6)
Wait — actually:
Wait! Let's re-check:
From our list:
-
1: only one → 10 - 9 = 1
✔
-
2: 6 - 2 = 4
✘ (no), wait:
Let me list all answers again:
1. 6 - 2 =
4
2. 5 - 3 =
2
3. 4 - 1 =
3
4. 10 - 2 =
8
5. 9 - 7 =
2
6. 7 - 3 =
4
7. 6 - 1 =
5
8. 5 - 3 =
2
9. 10 - 9 =
1
10. 8 - 3 =
5
11. 7 - 2 =
5
12. 9 - 6 =
3
So final answers:
-
1: 1 time (10 - 9)
-
2: 3 times (5 - 3, 9 - 7, 5 - 3)
-
3: 2 times (4 - 1, 9 - 6)
-
4: 2 times (6 - 2, 7 - 3)
-
5: 3 times (6 - 1, 8 - 3, 7 - 2)
-
8: 1 time (10 - 2)
But the numbers
1, 2, 3 are shown above — maybe they're clues for something else?
Alternatively, perhaps the girl with the magnifying glass is supposed to find which answer matches one of those numbers?
But the main task seems to be solving the subtraction problems.

✔ Final Answer Grid (solutions):
```
6 5 4 10
-2 -3 -1 -2
4 2 3 8
9 7 6 5
-7 -3 -1 -3
2 4 5 2
10 8 7 9
-9 -3 -2 -6
1 5 5 3
```
So the completed answers are:
Row 1: 4, 2, 3, 8
Row 2: 2, 4, 5, 2
Row 3: 1, 5, 5, 3
---
If you're supposed to connect this to the numbers
1, 2, 3 above, perhaps the idea is to identify which problems result in those numbers.
- Result
1: Only one problem → 10 - 9
- Result
2: Three problems → 5 - 3, 9 - 7, 5 - 3
- Result
3: Two problems → 4 - 1, 9 - 6
So maybe the numbers 1, 2, 3 indicate how many times each result appears? But that doesn't match exactly.
Alternatively, maybe the girl is "searching" for answers that are 1, 2, or 3 — and she should circle them?
But without more context, the most straightforward solution is to compute all the subtractions.
---
✔ Final Answer:
The solutions to the subtraction problems are:
First row: 4, 2, 3, 8
Second row: 2, 4, 5, 2
Third row: 1, 5, 5, 3
Each bubble should be filled with the correct result.
