Welcome to Find the Missing Numbers, a game where you get to be the number detective! You already know some of the numbers, and you know the answer.
Your mission is to find the missing number—the one that’s hiding behind the question mark ( ? ). This is a great way to enjoy math with fun and learn smart ways to solve problems!
Let’s look at this puzzle:
2 + ? = 7
1. We know the first number is 2.
2. We know the answer is 7.
3. Now we ask: “What number plus 2 equals 7?”
4. Here’s the trick: You do the opposite of adding.
5. Try: 7 − 2 = 5
The missing number is 5! Because 2 + 5 = 7. Great job!
Here’s a fun way to think about it:
| Example | What To Do | Trick | Answer |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4 + ? = 10 | Do 10 − 4 | Reverse the operation | 6 |
| ? − 3 = 9 | Do 9 + 3 | Work backwards | 12 |
| 5 × ? = 30 | Do 30 ÷ 5 | Divide to undo multiplication | 6 |
| ? ÷ 2 = 8 | Do 8 × 2 | Multiply to reverse division | 16 |
Just ask: “What do I need to do to find the number hiding behind the question mark?”
