To find the missing numbers, we can use inverse operations. This means if you have an addition problem, you can use subtraction to find the missing part. If you have a subtraction problem, you can use addition.
Here is the step-by-step solution for each problem:
1. $4\square + 15 = 56$
* Think: $56 - 15 = ?$
* $6 - 5 = 1$
* $5 - 1 = 4$
* The missing number is
1. (Check: $41 + 15 = 56$)
2. $\square5 - 43 = 52$
* Think: $52 + 43 = ?$
* $2 + 3 = 5$
* $5 + 4 = 9$
* The missing number is
9. (Check: $95 - 43 = 52$)
3. $25 + 1\square = 39$
* Think: $39 - 25 = ?$ or just look at the ones place: $5 + \square = 9$.
* $9 - 5 = 4$
* The missing number is
4. (Check: $25 + 14 = 39$)
4. $22 + \square5 = 57$
* Look at the tens place: $2 + \square = 5$.
* $5 - 2 = 3$
* The missing number is
3. (Check: $22 + 35 = 57$)
5. $2\square - 12 = 15$
* Think: $15 + 12 = ?$
* $5 + 2 = 7$
* $1 + 1 = 2$
* The missing number is
7. (Check: $27 - 12 = 15$)
6. $7\square - 43 = 32$
* Look at the ones place: $\square - 3 = 2$.
* What number minus 3 equals 2? It is 5.
* The missing number is
5. (Check: $75 - 43 = 32$)
7. $\square1 - 41 = 10$
* Think: $10 + 41 = ?$
* $0 + 1 = 1$
* $1 + 4 = 5$
* The missing number is
5. (Check: $51 - 41 = 10$)
8. $\square9 - 59 = 00$
* Think: $0 + 59 = ?$
* The answer must be 59 because subtracting 59 from itself gives zero.
* The missing number is
5. (Check: $59 - 59 = 0$)
9. $21 + 4\square = 65$
* Look at the ones place: $1 + \square = 5$.
* $5 - 1 = 4$
* The missing number is
4. (Check: $21 + 44 = 65$)
