364 – 88 + 5 + 17 = ?

294

296

298

300

It's a good idea to add the hundreds first, then the tens and finally the ones: 364 – 88 + 5 + 17 = (300) + (60 + 10 - 80) + (4 + 5 + 7 - 8) = (300) + (70 - 80) + (16 - 8) = 300 - 10 + 8 = 298

2 .

214 + 67 + 734 - 19 = ?

995

996

997

998

Remember to add the 100s, then 10s and finally ones. If you aren't sure of your answer, you can do the procedure again to double check

3 .

897 + 328 - 478 = ?

747

748

749

750

897 + 328 - 478 = (800 + 300 - 400) + (90 + 20 - 70) + (7 + 8 - 8) = (700) + (40) + (7) = 747

4 .

376 - 597 + 233 = ?

To avoid working with negative numbers, you can rearrange the problem: 376 - 597 + 233 = (376 + 233) - 597 = 609 - 597 = 12

5 .

608 + 753 - 487 = ?

871

872

873

874

With numbers less than 1,000, add the hundreds first, then the tens and then the ones. 608 + 753 - 487 = (600 + 700 - 400) + (50 - 80) + (8 + 3 - 7) = (900) + (-30) + (4) = 874

6 .

546 + 395 – 142 = ?

801

800

799

798

In multiple choice quizzes, the last digit in a number can show you the right answer. 6 + 5 - 2 = 9, so the last digit in 546 + 395 – 142 will also be a 9

7 .

720 – 703 – 300 + 821 = ?

538

539

540

541

Always look out for shortcuts: the 700s in 720 – 703 cancel each other out, making the answer the same as 20 - 3

8 .

700 + 100 + 300 – 786 = ?

214

264

314

324

700 + 300 = 1,000. keep your eyes peeled, looking for ways to break the problem up into smaller sums

9 .

354 – 75 – 83 + 248 = ?

434

444

454

464

Remember, 100s first, then 10s, then ones: 354 – 75 – 83 + 248 = (300 + 200) + (50 + 40 - 70 - 80) + (4 + 8 - 5 - 3) = (500) + (-60) + (4) = 444

10 .

147 + 476 – 38 = ?

582

583

584

585

7 + 6 - 8 = 5, so you know that the answer to 147 + 476 – 38 will also end with a 5
