Let’s solve each subtraction problem in the picture step by step. We’ll go section by section, calculate the answer, and then match it to the color guide.
First, here’s the Color Guide again for reference:
- 1 = black
- 2 = orange
- 3 = yellow
- 4 = pink
- 5 = blue
- 6 = brown
- 7 = white
Now let’s solve all the math problems one by one:
Top row (left to right):
- 10 - 5 = 5 → blue
- 8 - 4 = 4 → pink
- 11 - 8 = 3 → yellow
- 9 - 6 = 3 → yellow
- 10 - 7 = 3 → yellow
- 6 - 3 = 3 → yellow
- 6 - 2 = 4 → pink
- 12 - 7 = 5 → blue
Next row down:
- 12 - 9 = 3 → yellow
- 10 - 7 = 3 → yellow
- 10 - 4 = 6 → brown
- 9 - 7 = 2 → orange
- 9 - 3 = 6 → brown
- 7 - 5 = 2 → orange
- 7 - 3 = 4 → pink
Middle area around the bear’s head:
- 7 - 1 = 6 → brown
- 12 - 6 = 6 → brown
- 9 - 3 = 6 → brown
- 2 - 1 = 1 → black
- 8 - 2 = 6 → brown
- 4 - 1 = 3 → yellow
- 9 - 6 = 3 → yellow
Bear’s body and arms:
- 3 - 1 = 2 → orange
- 12 - 10 = 2 → orange
- 11 - 9 = 2 → orange
- 5 - 3 = 2 → orange
- 4 - 2 = 2 → orange
- 8 - 2 = 6 → brown
- 14 - 7 = 7 → white
- 9 - 2 = 7 → white
- 12 - 9 = 3 → yellow
- 5 - 2 = 3 → yellow
- 10 - 4 = 6 → brown
- 6 - 3 = 3 → yellow
Bottom part (feet and clouds):
- 9 - 6 = 3 → yellow
- 7 - 4 = 3 → yellow
- 7 - 3 = 4 → pink
- 5 - 1 = 4 → pink
- 9 - 4 = 5 → blue
- 5 - 2 = 3 → yellow
- 11 - 5 = 6 → brown
- 12 - 6 = 6 → brown
- 7 - 1 = 6 → brown
- 12 - 6 = 6 → brown
- 8 - 4 = 4 → pink
- 10 - 6 = 4 → pink
- 11 - 6 = 5 → blue
- 9 - 6 = 3 → yellow
- 11 - 8 = 3 → yellow
Also check these:
- 8 - 6 = 2 → orange
- 10 - 8 = 2 → orange
- 9 - 3 = 6 → brown
- 12 - 6 = 6 → brown (already done)
- 11 - 5 = 6 → brown (already done)
All calculations are double-checked.
Final Answer:
Each section of the picture should be colored according to the result of its subtraction problem using this key:
1=black, 2=orange, 3=yellow, 4=pink, 5=blue, 6=brown, 7=white.
For example:
- Any section with “7-1” gets colored brown (because 7-1=6).
- Any section with “2-1” gets colored black (because 2-1=1).
- Any section with “14-7” or “9-2” gets colored white (because both equal 7).
Follow this for every number in the drawing to reveal the full colored image.
