In order to find his way out, he needs to solve a series of puzzles.  \n1. The first puzzle involved two giant trees. To open the path, he needs to find the height difference between the two trees. If the first tree is 465 feet high and the second is 399 feet, what is the height difference?  \n2. The path opened to a beautiful garden enclosed by a 600-foot wall. The exit door will open when the number of white flowers is the same as the number of red flowers. If there are 555 white flowers and 347 red flowers, how many more red flowers are needed?  \n3. The exit door leads to a river 487 inches across; if the bridge he needs to cross is only 295 inches, how much longer does he need to build if he wants to cross the river using the bridge?  \n4. Across the river, he fell into a hole 24 feet deep. To get out, he needs to fill it with 823 gallons of water. If the hole initially has  \n676 gallons, how much more water does he need to fill it?  \n5. At the edge of the forest, an anthill is blocking his way out. In order to pass through, Simon needs to help the ants gather food. If the ants need 911 grains of food and they already have  \n762, how many more grains are needed to be gathered?  \nReading and Math for K-5 © [www.k5learning.com](www.k5learning.com)  \nAnswers  \n1. 465 – 399 = 66  \nThe height difference is 66 feet.  \n2. 555 – 347 = 208  \n208 additional red flowers are needed to open the exit door.  \n3. 487 – 295 = 192  \nHe needs to build 192 additional inches in order to cross the bridge.  \n4. 823 – 676 = 147  \nHe needs to fill it with 147 more gallons of water.  \n5. 911 – 762 = 149  \n149 more grains are needed to be gathered.  \nReading and Math for K-5 © [www.k5learning.com](www.k5learning.com)","cbCaij6RwfdK6cOn","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaij6RwfdK6cOn","pdf",85694,"English","# Grade 3 Math Word Problems\n## Subtraction Exercises\n## Answer Key","[{\"question\":\"What is the height difference between the two giant trees in the first puzzle?\",\"answer\":\"The first tree is 465 feet and the second is 399 feet, resulting in a height difference of 66 feet.\"},{\"question\":\"How many additional red flowers does Simon need to collect to match the white flowers?\",\"answer\":\"There are 555 white flowers and 347 red flowers, meaning 208 more red flowers are needed to open the door.\"},{\"question\":\"How much additional length does Simon need to build for his bridge to cross the river?\",\"answer\":\"The river is 487 inches across and the current bridge is 295 inches, so he needs 192 additional inches to cross.\"}]","Grade 3 Math - Subtraction Word Problems | PDF",1791791807]
