Adding & Subtracting Within 5
- Add two whole numbers where the sum is 5 or less (e.g., 2 + 3).
- Subtract within 5 to find how many are left (e.g., 5 − 2).

About these worksheets
Practice standard addition problems ranging from simple sums within 5 all the way up to four-digit plus four-digit addition. Worksheets are available in both vertical and horizontal formats and cover key skills like regrouping (carrying), adding multiples of ten, finding missing addends, and solving mixed addition and subtraction problems. These resources align with Common Core standards from kindergarten through fourth grade, giving students structured practice at every level.
Adding Within 100 (horizontal)
- Add two numbers up to 100 to find the total.
- Practice adding when you need to trade 10 ones for 1 ten (carrying).
- Practice adding two-digit numbers with and without carrying
- Solve addition problems where the sum stays within two digits (no answer over 100)
- Work with a mix of two-digit plus two-digit and two-digit plus one-digit problems
Adding Multiples of Ten
- Add a 2-digit number and a multiple of ten within 100 (e.g., 34 + 20).
- Use place value to add tens to a number while keeping the ones digit the same (e.g., 57 + 30 = 87).
- Solve vertical (stacked) addition problems without regrouping when adding tens.
Adding Multiples of Ten (Horizontal)
- Add a 2-digit number and a multiple of ten within 100 (e.g., 34 + 20).
- Use place value to add tens to a number by changing only the tens digit (ones stay the same).
- Count on by tens from a 2-digit number to find the sum (skip-counting by 10s).
Solving Mixed Problems within 20 (+ -)
- Practice finding a missing number in addition and subtraction equations
- Get comfortable seeing the unknown in different spots — at the beginning, middle, or end of an equation
Solving Mixed Problems within 100 (+ -)
- Practice subtracting two-digit numbers to find how many are left or how many more are needed.
- Decide whether to add or subtract based on the symbols in the problem.
- Work carefully with place value so the ones and tens stay in the right spots.
- Practice finding a missing number in addition and subtraction equations
- Get comfortable seeing the unknown in different spots — at the beginning, middle, or end of an equation
Solving Mixed Problems within 1000 (+ -)
- Practice adding and subtracting numbers up to 1,000 accurately.
- Decide whether to add or subtract based on the symbols in the problem.
- Use regrouping when needed to solve multi-digit addition and subtraction.
- Keep digits lined up by place value so the answer makes sense.
- Practice finding a missing number in addition and subtraction equations
- Get comfortable seeing the unknown in different spots — at the beginning, middle, or end of an equation
Adding Within 1,000
- Add two numbers up to 1,000 to find the total.
- Use carrying (regrouping) when a place value adds to 10 or more.
- Add in vertical form using the standard step-by-step method.
4 Digit Plus 4 Digit
- Add two four-digit numbers to find the total.
- Use carrying (regrouping) when a place value adds to 10 or more.
4 Digit Plus 4 Digit (horizontal)
- Add two 4-digit numbers written in a horizontal equation (e.g., 3,482 + 6,159).
- Regroup (carry) from ones to tens, tens to hundreds, and hundreds to thousands when adding 4-digit numbers.
- Use place value to add thousands, hundreds, tens, and ones accurately.
Addition and Subtraction with Regrouping
- Practice adding multi-digit numbers using carrying when a place value adds to 10 or more.
- Practice subtracting multi-digit numbers using borrowing when you don’t have enough in a place value.
