Complete the problem. Then white an equation to solve it. Jake has 6 toy trucks. Some are big. 2 are small.

If he has 6 trucks and 2 are small that would mean there are 4 left that are big.

To find the number of big trucks, you'll subtract 2 (the given number of small trucks) from the the total number of trucks, so:.

6 - 2 = 4

Now you know that Jake has 2 small trucks and 4 large trucks, so you can check your answer:

Does 4 + 2 = 6? Yep!
