The content focuses on real-world applications of arithmetic, specifically involving measurements of famous architectural structures and landmarks such as the Burj Khalifa, Sears Tower, Eiffel Tower, and the High Roller. Each problem presents a unique scenario requiring students to calculate the difference in height or value between two entities, providing a structured approach to practicing multi-digit subtraction. An answer key is included at the end to facilitate self-assessment and verification of the calculated results, making this an ideal resource for primary mathematics learning and skill reinforcement.",{"@graph":14,"@context":73},[15,34,56],{"@type":16,"itemListElement":17},"BreadcrumbList",[18,23,27,31],{"item":19,"name":20,"@type":21,"position":22},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",1,{"item":24,"name":25,"@type":21,"position":26},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/","Document",2,{"item":28,"name":29,"@type":21,"position":30},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/exam/","Exam",3,{"item":32,"name":10,"@type":21,"position":33},"https://docshare.wps.com/document/grade-3-math-subtraction-word-problems/553816/",4,{"url":32,"name":10,"@type":35,"image":36,"author":41,"headline":10,"publisher":44,"fileFormat":47,"inLanguage":8,"description":12,"dateModified":48,"datePublished":49,"encodingFormat":47,"isAccessibleForFree":50,"interactionStatistic":51},"DigitalDocument",{"url":37,"@type":38,"width":39,"height":40},"https://docshare.wps.com/thumbnails/grade-3-math-subtraction-word-problems/553816.png","ImageObject",300,407,{"name":42,"@type":43},"Franzy","Person",{"url":19,"name":45,"@type":46},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-11-04","2026-10-12",true,{"@type":52,"interactionType":53,"userInteractionCount":55},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":54},"ViewAction",6,{"@type":57,"mainEntity":58},"FAQPage",[59,65,69],{"name":60,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":62},"What is the difference in height between the Burj Khalifa and the Sears Tower?","Question",{"text":63,"@type":64},"The Burj Khalifa stands at 830 meters and the Sears Tower stands at 527 meters; subtracting these values shows the Burj Khalifa is 303 meters higher.","Answer",{"name":66,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":67},"How much taller is the High Roller than the London Eye?",{"text":68,"@type":64},"The High Roller is 550 feet tall and the London Eye is 443 feet tall, making the High Roller 107 feet taller than the London Eye.",{"name":70,"@type":61,"acceptedAnswer":71},"What is the height of the Space Needle if it is 369 meters shorter than the 553-meter-tall CN Tower?",{"text":72,"@type":64},"By subtracting 369 meters from the CN Tower's height of 553 meters, the Space Needle is calculated to be 184 meters tall.","https://schema.org",{"og:url":32,"og:type":75,"og:title":10,"og:site_name":45,"og:description":12},"article",{"robots":77,"canonical":32},"index,follow",{"doc_id":79,"site_id":7},553816,1793020947,{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":83},"success",[84,88,92,95,100,104,109,114,119,122,126],{"id":22,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":85,"show_sort_weight":86,"slug":87},"Story & Novel",90,"story-novel",{"id":26,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":89,"show_sort_weight":90,"slug":91},"Literature",80,"literature",{"id":33,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":29,"show_sort_weight":93,"slug":94},70,"exam",{"id":96,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":97,"show_sort_weight":98,"slug":99},5,"Comic",60,"comic",{"id":55,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":101,"show_sort_weight":102,"slug":103},"Technology",50,"technology",{"id":105,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":106,"show_sort_weight":107,"slug":108},7,"Healthcare",40,"healthcare",{"id":110,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":111,"show_sort_weight":112,"slug":113},8,"Research & Report",30,"research-report",{"id":115,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":116,"show_sort_weight":117,"slug":118},9,"Religion & Spirituality",20,"religion-spirituality",{"id":117,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":120,"show_sort_weight":117,"slug":121},"World Cup","world-cup",{"id":123,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":124,"show_sort_weight":123,"slug":125},10,"Lifestyle","lifestyle",{"id":127,"doc_module":4,"doc_module_name":25,"category_name":128,"show_sort_weight":96,"slug":129},19,"General","general",{"code":4,"msg":82,"data":131},{"doc_id":79,"user_id":132,"nickname":42,"user_avatar":133,"doc_module":4,"category_id":33,"category_name":29,"doc_title":10,"doc_description":12,"doc_content":134,"file_id":135,"file_url":136,"file_type":137,"file_size":138,"view_count":55,"is_deleted":4,"is_public":22,"is_downloadable":22,"audit_status":22,"page_count":30,"language":139,"language_code":8,"site_id":7,"html_lang":8,"table_of_contents":140,"faqs":141,"seo_title":142,"seo_description":12,"update_tm":143,"read_time":110,"preview_page_count":4},2336478945519,"https://ap-avatar.wpscdn.com/davatar_085a072bc5b1113ac321206ff7593b45","Subtraction word problems  \nGrade 3 Math Word Problems Worksheet  \nRob is very fond of tall structures. He likes collecting pictures and comparing them.  \n1. Two of his favorite buildings are Chicago’s Sears Tower and Dubai’s Burj Khalifa. If Burj Khalifa stands at 830 meters high and Sears Tower stands at 527 meters high, how much higher is Burj Khalifa than Sears Tower?  \n2. Rob also compared the Empire State Building and the Petronas Towers. What is the height difference between the two if the Empire State Building is 443 meters tall and the Petronas Towers is 452 meters tall?  \n3. Having been to Paris, Rob also remembered the Eiffel Tower, which was the tallest structure in the world at the time it was built in 1887. If the Eiffel Tower is 324 meters tall, how much lower is it compared to today’s tallest man-made structure, the Burj Khalifa?  \n4. Rob also matched the London Eye which stands at 443 feet and Las Vegas’ High Roller standing at 550 feet. The High Roller can fit 40 people in each of its cabins. Being the tallest Ferris wheel in the world, how much taller is High Roller than the London Eye?  \n5. Lastly, Rob compared Canada’s CN Tower and Seattle’s Space Needle. How tall is the Space Needle if the CN Tower stands at  \n553 meters high and it is taller than the Space Needle by 369 meters?  \nReading and Math for K-5 © [www.k5learning.com](www.k5learning.com)  \nAnswers  \n1. 830 – 527 = 303  \nBurj Khalifa is 303 meters higher than Sears Tower.  \n2. 452 – 443 = 9  \nThe difference between the heights of the two buildings is 9 meters.  \n3. 830 – 324 = 506  \nThe Eiffel Tower is lower than Burj Khalifa by 506 meters.  \n4. 550 – 443 = 107  \nHigh Roller is taller than the London Eye by 107 feet.  \n5. 553 – 369 = 184  \nThe Space Needle in Seattle is 184 meters tall.  \nReading and Math for K-5 © [www.k5learning.com](www.k5learning.com)","cbCaibn99OmXDjtp","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaibn99OmXDjtp","pdf",87227,"English","# Subtraction Word Problems\n## Practice Exercises\n## Answer Key","[{\"question\":\"What is the difference in height between the Burj Khalifa and the Sears Tower?\",\"answer\":\"The Burj Khalifa stands at 830 meters and the Sears Tower stands at 527 meters; subtracting these values shows the Burj Khalifa is 303 meters higher.\"},{\"question\":\"How much taller is the High Roller than the London Eye?\",\"answer\":\"The High Roller is 550 feet tall and the London Eye is 443 feet tall, making the High Roller 107 feet taller than the London Eye.\"},{\"question\":\"What is the height of the Space Needle if it is 369 meters shorter than the 553-meter-tall CN Tower?\",\"answer\":\"By subtracting 369 meters from the CN Tower's height of 553 meters, the Space Needle is calculated to be 184 meters tall.\"}]","Grade 3 Math - Subtraction Word Problems | PDF",1791791803]
