Subtract 6 Worksheet/Game
Welcome to the Subtract 6 Challenge! This interactive practice module is designed to sharpen your mental math skills by focusing on subtracting six from numbers up to 20. Scroll down the page for a more detailed explanation.

How to Play

Identify the Target
The main equation appears in the center of the screen (e.g., 14 - 6). Your starting number will range from 6 up to 20, ensuring you always have a positive result to find.
The “Bridge Through 10”
This strategy is excellent for numbers between 11 and 15. You use 10 as a “rest stop” to make the calculation easier.
Step 1: Subtract whatever is in the ones place to get to 10.
Step 2: Subtract the “leftover” part of the 6 from 10.
Example (14 - 6):
14 - 4 = 10
Since 6 - 4 = 2, you still need to subtract 2 more.
10 - 2 = 8
