Addition and Subtraction (Year 5)
You add 0.6 to 6.4 to make 7.

Addition and Subtraction (Year 5)

In Year 5, which is like the third year of KS2 Maths, we'll tackle some more challenging addition and subtraction puzzles, even with tricky decimals! By now, we know how to use plus (+) for adding and minus (-) for taking away. Plus (+) helps make numbers bigger, like 5 + 5 = 10. Minus (-) makes numbers smaller, like 8 - 4 = 4. We have cool tricks like counting steps, rounding numbers, and using number bonds to make Maths easier!
