Subtraction Strategies with Base-10 Blocks and Place Value

The video tutorial demonstrates how to subtract 34 from 82 using base ten blocks and a place value chart. It begins by setting up the problem with 82 represented as eight tens and two ones. Since four ones cannot be subtracted from two ones, one ten is exchanged for ten ones, resulting in seven tens and twelve ones. The subtraction of four ones leaves eight ones, and the subtraction of three tens leaves four tens, resulting in the final answer of 48. The video concludes with a preview of the next tutorial, which will cover subtraction using bar models.

What is the initial step in subtracting 34 from 82 using base ten blocks?

• Subtract the tens place first

• Write down the numbers 82 and 34

• Subtract the ones place first

• Convert a ten block into ones
