Have posted this before in another thread. You may want to consider the method below.


Solving questions on 'more than' and 'less than' sums

Type 1
_______ is 5 less than 12.
Cover up 5. The question will then be read as ______ is less than 12. Therefore _____is the smaller number. To find the smaller number, we always need to subtract. The answer is then 12 - 5 = 7.

Similarly
_______ is 2 more than 12
Cover up 2 again. The question will then be read as ______ is more than 12. Therefore ____ is the bigger number. To find the bigger number, we always need to add. The answer is then 12 + 2 = 14.

Type 2
3 is 4 less than ____
Cover up 4. The question will then be read as 3 is less than ______. Therefore 3 is the smaller number and ______ is the bigger number. To find the bigger number, we always need to add. Therefore the answer is 3+ 4 = 7

10 is 6 more than _____
Similarly cover up 6. The question will then be read as 10 is more than ______. Therefore 10 is the bigger number and ______ is the smaller number. To find the smaller number, we always need to subtract. Therefore the answer is 10 -6 = 4

Type C
2 is ___ less than 10.
In this question, we are comparing the 2 numbers, 2 and 10. 2 is less than 10 but by how much? To find the answer, we use the bigger number minus the smaller number, that is, 10 - 2 = 8.

10 is ______ more than 4.
In this question, we are comparing the 2 numbers, 10 and 4.
10 is more than 4 but by how much? To find the answer, we again use the bigger number minus the smaller number, that is, 10 - 4 = 6.

Hope you can understand my solution...

Good solution indeed
