      Find the missing doubles or halves

          ![]()  | 
        
Halving to subtract.
If you know your halves and doubles, you can sometimes use them to add or subtract. Examples:
      Now try these:
| 340 – 176 | 145 + 148 | 900 – 452 | 
    Study the ways.
256 children each get a Christmas present. Half get dolls and half get cars. How many get cars?
| Way 1 | Way 2 | 
| 
         256 = 200 + 50 + 6 
 
 
 100 + 25 + 3 = 128 
 So 128 get cars.  | 
        
         
 
 125 + 3 = 128 
 So 128 get cars.  |
