→ → Grade 3 subtraction

In third grade, children subtract mentally especially with two-digit numbers and also somewhat with three- and four-digit numbers. With column-subtraction, they practice regrouping, including regrouping with zeros, using 3- and 4-digit numbers.

These worksheets are generated automatically each time you click on a link. You can print the worksheet directly from your browser window, but first check how it looks like in the "Print Preview".

If the worksheet does not fit the page in the Print Preview, adjust your margins, header, and footer in the Page Setup settings of the browser. Or, adjust the "scale" to 90% or less in the Print Preview. Some browsers may have "Print to fit" option, which will automatically scale the worksheet to be so small as to fit the printable area.

The problem sheets are randomly generated, so you will get a different one just by refreshing the page in your browser (press F5).

All worksheets come with an answer key.

How to teach subtraction strategies and concepts to your third graders.

Hello teachers and parents, visit Mathskills4kids.com and discover many ways to teach subtraction strategies and concepts to your third graders . Some of the most common and effective methods are:

  • Using concrete objects or manipulatives , such as counters, blocks, beads, or coins, to show how subtraction works. For example, you can show how to subtract 7 from 10 by taking away 7 counters from a group of 10 counters.
  • Using pictures or drawings to represent subtraction situations. For example, you can draw 10 apples and cross out 7 apples to show how to subtract 7 from 10.
  • Using number lines to show how subtraction can be done by jumping backward or forwards. For example, you can show how to subtract 7 from 10 by starting at 10 and jumping back 7 spaces on the number line.
  • Using mental math strategies , such as counting on or counting back , to do subtraction quickly and easily. For example, you can show how to subtract 7 from 10 by counting back from 10: 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3. The last number you say is the answer.
  • Using fact families or related facts to show how subtraction and addition are connected . For example, you can show how the fact family 10 - 7 = 3, 7 + 3 = 10, 10 - 3 = 7, and 3 + 7 = 10 are all related.
