Math Problem Statement

Solve the number grids by following the arithmetic operations indicated (+40, -30, +80, -70) to fill in the missing numbers.

Solution

The image contains math problems related to filling in numbers based on arithmetic operations within a grid. Let me interpret and solve it step by step.

The grid tasks appear to involve adding or subtracting a specific value (+40, -30, etc.) between adjacent cells. Here's how to analyze and solve it:

  1. First Grid (Top Left):

    • The operation is +40.
    • Given numbers: 520520 and 250250.
    • Rule: Add 40 to each previous number to find the next.
      • 52040=480520 - 40 = 480, 48040=440480 - 40 = 440.
      • 250+40=290250 + 40 = 290, 290+40=330290 + 40 = 330.
      • Final grid: 520,480,440520, 480, 440; 250,290,330250, 290, 330.
  2. Second Grid (Top Right):

    • The operation is -30.
    • Start with 670670 and 310310.
    • Rule: Subtract 30 each time.
      • 67030=640670 - 30 = 640, 64030=610640 - 30 = 610.
      • 310+30=340310 + 30 = 340, 340+30=370340 + 30 = 370.
      • Final grid: 670,640,610670, 640, 610; 310,340,370310, 340, 370.
  3. Third Grid (Bottom Left):

    • The operation is +80.
    • Start with 120120 and 210210.
    • Rule: Add 80 each time.
      • 120+80=200120 + 80 = 200, 200+80=280200 + 80 = 280.
      • 210+80=290210 + 80 = 290, 290+80=370290 + 80 = 370.
      • Final grid: 120,200,280120, 200, 280; 210,290,370210, 290, 370.
  4. Fourth Grid (Bottom Right):

    • The operation is -70.
    • Start with 980980 and 890890.
    • Rule: Subtract 70 each time.
      • 98070=910980 - 70 = 910, 91070=840910 - 70 = 840.
      • 89070=820890 - 70 = 820, 82070=750820 - 70 = 750.
      • Final grid: 980,910,840980, 910, 840; 890,820,750890, 820, 750.
