  • Taking away tens works the same way. 7 minus 3 is 4, so 70 minus 30 is 40.
  • Your turn! Tap 2 tens to take them away from 56.
  • 5 tens take away 2 tens is 3 tens. The 6 ones stay. 56 minus 20 is 36!
  • You can count back by tens too: 56, 46, 36.
  • When you take away tens, only the tens change.
