The worksheet is designed to enhance the mathematical fluency and precision of children in subtracting four-digit numbers that require more than one exchange. The worksheet guides students through a series of subtraction problems where they must utilise their understanding of place value and the column method to perform calculations with multiple exchanges. Initially, children use place value counters to visualise the exchange process twice and gradually progress to solving problems with up to three exchanges.

Students are also encouraged to use the inverse operation to find missing numbers in given calculations, reinforcing their comprehension of the relationship between addition and subtraction. The worksheet presents subtraction problems in both numerical and word form, requiring students to translate the written calculations into the formal method before solving. By working through these exercises, children develop their ability to handle complex subtraction problems and improve their problem-solving skills with structured practice and clear examples provided.
