Final Answer:
5 − 3 = 2
7 − 6 = 1
4 − 2 = 2
6 − 1 = 5
9 − 5 = 4
3 − 1 = 2
8 − 5 = 3

Explanation:
- First, count how many circles there are in total — that’s the first number in the subtraction.
- Then, cross out the number of circles shown in the second number (the one after the minus sign).
- Count how many circles are left — that’s your answer.
For example, in
7 − 6:
There are 7 blue circles. Cross out 6 of them. Only 1 is left → answer is 1.
Do the same for each row:
- 4 red circles, cross out 2 → 2 left
- 6 yellow circles, cross out 1 → 5 left
- 9 green circles, cross out 5 → 4 left
- 3 pink circles, cross out 1 → 2 left
- 8 cyan circles, cross out 5 → 3 left
