Inverse
• You will learn:
• That addition is the inverse of subtraction.
• To check your answers by using the inverse operation.
• To solve simple ‘missing number’ problems by using the inverse method.
Can you turn these addition number sentences into
subtractions?• 6+2=8
• 9+7=16
• 23+41=64
• 39+22=61
• 8-2=6
• 16-7=9
• 64-41=23
• 61-22=39
Can you make a different subtraction?
You can use this method to check your answers.
9+4= 13
Check your answer by turning it into a subtraction:
13-4= 9 or 13-9= 4
What would you do if an equation had a missing number?
+7=15
It is not a straight forward task, so use the numbers you have been
given!
+7=15
It is an addition, so start at the end and turn it into a subtraction…
15-7= 88
It is not a straight forward task, so use the numbers you have been
given!
-9=16
It is a subtraction, so start at the end and turn it into an addition…
16+9= 2525
In your books, try to solve these problems. Record the inverse calculation.
+13=29
+20=41
+17=31
+14=35
-8=14
-19=13
-27=56
-30=65
Plenary• Addition and subtraction are the inverse of each
other.
• Use this fact to help you check your answers when performing addition and subtraction calculations.
• If the first number of a problem is missing, try using the inverse method.
