✔ Final Answers:
```
5 - 2 = 3 3 - 1 = 2 9 - 5 = 4
10 - 4 = 6 7 - 3 = 4 5 - 5 = 0
4 - 1 = 3 3 - 2 = 1 4 - 2 = 2
6 - 3 = 3 8 - 4 = 4 1 - 1 = 0
2 - 0 = 2 6 - 2 = 4 10 - 7 = 3

🎉 Explanation:
This is a basic subtraction worksheet designed to help students practice taking one number away from another. The problems use small numbers (up to 10), which are ideal for early learners. Each answer is found by counting backward or using number sense.
For example:
- To solve 5 - 2, you can think: "What number comes two steps before 5?" → 4, 3 → So, 3.
- For 5 - 5, if you take all 5 away, you have nothing left → 0.
These types of problems build foundational math skills and mental arithmetic.
