Got time for two math word problems? Great! Grab your pencil and try these puzzles about addition and place value. Remember to put the right number of checkmarks in the frames to match your answers.

Place value is like a row of cubby holes. Each digit in a number has its own space. Let's look at 42. This number has two cubby holes. The 2 goes in the ones place, and the 4 sits in the tens place. So, you can break down 42 into 4 tens and 2 ones. Mastering place value helps you add, subtract, and solve all kinds of math problems more easily. Ready to give it a try? Let's go!
