There are 67 bird families living near the mountain. If 32 bird families flew away for winter, how many bird families were left near the mountain?  \n2. At the river, 25 out of 55 salmon families went to warmer waters to avoid being frozen. They had to swim 125 miles to get there! How many salmon families were left in the river?  \n3. The wolves, though accustomed to cold weather, also wanted to move away from the incoming winter. If there are 43 packs of wolves living in the forest and 31 packs went away, how many wolf packs were left in the forest?  \n4. Some deer families are also moving out to avoid the shortage of grass that will result from the snow. If there are 79 deer families in the area and 45 of them stayed, how many deer families moved out?  \n5. Even the chipmunks tried to get away to find other warmer places to stay. They would have to walk for 14 days to get somewhere warmer. If 21 chipmunks were left from the original  \n86, how many chipmunks went away?  \nReading and Math for K-5 © [www.k5learning.com](www.k5learning.com)  \nAnswers  \n1. 67 – 32 = 35  \n35 bird families were left near the mountain.  \n2. 55 – 25 = 30  \n30 salmon families were left in the river.  \n3. 43 – 31 = 12  \nThere were 12 wolf packs left in the forest.  \n4. 79 – 45 = 34  \n34 deer families moved out for winter.  \n5. 86 – 21 = 65  \n65 went away to find warmer places.  \nReading and Math for K-5 © [www.k5learning.com](www.k5learning.com)","cbCais7HclPiHkcn","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCais7HclPiHkcn","pdf",61512,"English","# Grade 3 Subtraction Word Problems\n## Problem Set\n## Answer Key","[{\"question\":\"How many bird families remained near the mountain after some migrated for winter?\",\"answer\":\"There were 35 bird families left near the mountain after 32 out of 67 families flew away.\"},{\"question\":\"How many wolf packs remained in the forest when winter arrived?\",\"answer\":\"There were 12 wolf packs left in the forest after 31 packs out of 43 migrated away.\"},{\"question\":\"If there were 86 total chipmunks and 21 remained, how many moved away to warmer locations?\",\"answer\":\"A total of 65 chipmunks moved away to find warmer places to stay.\"}]","Grade 3 Math - Subtraction Word Problems | PDF"]
