2nd Grade Subtraction Worksheets

Second graders work on adding and subtracting within 100 using place value strategies (2.NBT.B.5). These problems use two-digit numbers, and the larger number always comes first, so there are no negative answers.

Some problems will need regrouping (borrowing) and some will not. That mix is good practice in deciding when to regroup.
