Questions about Mixed Missing Numbers

What does the Mixed Missing Numbers worksheet cover?

It practises the unknown in any of the three positions — 15 questions for Grade 1, all on Common Core 1.OA.B.4: See subtraction as finding the missing part. The instruction to pupils is “Work out each answer”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.

Which Common Core standard does Mixed Missing Numbers practise?

CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.1.OA.B.4 — 1.OA.B.4, in the Operations & Algebraic Thinking domain for Grade 1. The published standard reads: “Understand subtraction as an unknown-addend problem.” The worksheet assesses that standard rather than a paraphrase of it.

What age or grade is this worksheet for?

Mixed Missing Numbers is written for Grade 1, typically ages 6-7. It is one of the sheets on 1.OA.B.4, so it suits any pupil working at that standard — including older pupils revisiting it and younger ones working ahead.

Does Mixed Missing Numbers come with an answer key?

Yes. All 15 answers are generated from the same problems as the questions, so the key cannot drift out of step with the sheet. It starts on a fresh sheet of paper, after the questions, so it is not handed out with the class by accident.

How many different versions of Mixed Missing Numbers can I print?

25 — one per pupil, and all 25 ask different questions. Set 1 downloads the whole class as a single PDF. Every version is fixed to its own address, so a sheet printed today holds the same problems when you reopen it next week.

Is Mixed Missing Numbers free to print and photocopy?

Yes. Mixed Missing Numbers, its answer key and its 25 versions are free to print and photocopy for your own class, with no account, no email capture and no subscription at the download step. Please do not resell them or republish them as your own.
