Let’s go through each problem one by one. We’re coloring blocks to match the number given — tens (the tall columns) and ones (the small squares).
Each tall column = 10
Each small square = 1
We’ll check how many are already colored, then figure out how many more we need to color to reach the target number.
---
Problem 1: Color 14
Already colored:
- Tens: 1 full column → 10
- Ones: 3 small squares → 3
Total so far: 10 + 3 = 13
Need: 14 → So color
1 more one
✔ Final for #1: Color 1 more small square in the ones section.
---
Problem 2: Color 22
Already colored:
- Tens: 2 full columns → 20
- Ones: 2 small squares → 2
Total so far: 20 + 2 = 22
Need: 22 → Already there! No more to color.
✔ Final for #2: Nothing else to color.
---
Problem 3: Color 31
Already colored:
- Tens: 3 full columns → 30
- Ones: 1 small square → 1
Total so far: 30 + 1 = 31
Need: 31 → Already there!
✔ Final for #3: Nothing else to color.

Problem 4: Color 17
Already colored:
- Tens: 1 full column → 10
- Ones: 6 small squares → 6
Total so far: 10 + 6 = 16
Need: 17 → Color
1 more one
✔ Final for #4: Color 1 more small square in the ones section.
---
Problem 5: Color 46
Already colored:
- Tens: 4 full columns → 40
- Ones: 5 small squares → 5
Total so far: 40 + 5 = 45
Need: 46 → Color
1 more one
✔ Final for #5: Color 1 more small square in the ones section.

Problem 6: Color 35
Already colored:
- Tens: 3 full columns → 30
- Ones: 4 small squares → 4
Total so far: 30 + 4 = 34
Need: 35 → Color
1 more one
✔ Final for #6: Color 1 more small square in the ones section.
---
Problem 7: Color 53
Already colored:
- Tens: 5 full columns → 50
- Ones: 3 small squares → 3
Total so far: 50 + 3 = 53
Need: 53 → Already there!
✔ Final for #7: Nothing else to color.
---
Problem 8: Color 48
Already colored:
- Tens: 4 full columns → 40
- Ones: 7 small squares → 7
Total so far: 40 + 7 = 47
Need: 48 → Color
1 more one
✔ Final for #8: Color 1 more small square in the ones section.

Final Answer:
For each problem, here’s what you need to color:
1) Color 1 more one
2) Nothing — already correct
3) Nothing — already correct
4) Color 1 more one
5) Color 1 more one
6) Color 1 more one
7) Nothing — already correct
8) Color 1 more one
