Strategies[]

This exercise is fairly simple so the accuracy badges are fine. The timing needed for the speed badges is still pretty tight, but the problems themselves are easy so it is medium difficulty for speed badges in general.

  1. This exercise has problems that seem to exclusively deal with subtraction. It is thus not necessary to completely read the problem and instead just subtract the numbers that are appearing.

Real-life Applications[]

  1. Knowledge of adding and subtracting numbers are essential for algebra and the higher maths.
  2. Addition is a major fundamental for higher math levels like algebra, calculus, and more.
