You, the student, are given a set of numbers, 6 2 4 5 9 3
Using each digit only once, arrange them in the following subtraction exercise so that they show the least amount of difference and the greatest amount of difference.
Two subtraction examples are set up, with the same 3 digits on top, say 876.
You are to plug 3 digits from those you've been given into the second line, so that the answers will show those least and greatest amounts of difference.
Actually, I've clarified the instructions, at least to my mind, because I had to read the problem 3 times to understand what it was asking. I think I understood, but I'm not sure........
If this is second grade work, I'm looking forward to next year's.
