THE CURIOSI · EXPLORE & TRY

Explore the model, then test your understanding. Select each numbered stop to discover its role.

Strategy model: follow the labelled quantities and explain each change. Number-line jumps are schematic.

1Combine both sales

Both groups are tickets sold, so add 29 and 17.

2Name the intermediate answer

46 means tickets sold altogether; it is not the number remaining.

3Subtract and check

Subtract sales from the 68 printed tickets. Check 46 + 22 = 68.

Choose a strategy you can explain. Check the numbers and include units where needed.

Choose one answer for each question, then check. Practice results stay on this page and do not change course completion.

2. How many of the 68 tickets remain? 46 114 22
