Challenge young minds and inspire mathematical thinking and reasoning in your class with this Year 3 Subtract a 2-Digit Number from a 3-Digit Number Discussion Problem. This resource includes two in-depth problem-solving questions that are great to use once your children are secure in their subtraction knowledge. Both questions are based on concepts that children will relate to, which makes them fun to complete.

We'd recommend using this after a series of varied fluency and reasoning and problem-solving questions to ensure children have a solid understanding. They are great for paired or small group work within class, or you could open the discussion up to the whole class and display one on screen. The choice is yours! We've included an example answer so that children can compare their outcome to ours.
