Basic Missing Withdrawals

This worksheet provides students with simple subtraction equations in which one value is missing. Students must use logical reasoning and subtraction knowledge to determine whether the missing number is the minuend, subtrahend, or difference. The problems focus on single-digit values, making this worksheet ideal for early learners or foundational skill practice. By solving each equation, students strengthen fact fluency and deepen their understanding of the relationship between addition and subtraction. This worksheet supports independent practice, small-group instruction, or quick warm-ups. Students gain confidence as they use inverse operations to find missing values.
