Are your class ready to apply their subtraction skills? Then, download and use our Year 4 Subtract Two 4-Digit Numbers - More than One Exchange Reasoning and Problem Solving resource downloaded! This resource has been differentiated into three levels of challenge to support all learners in your class. Each worksheet consists of two different reasoning style questions and a problem-solving style question. We've also provided two of each question type for children to build confidence in their answers.
