Vertical Missing Dividends

Worksheet Description

These problems come complete with a dividend and a quotient but are missing a dividend.  Determine what the missing dividend is. This worksheet is designed for practicing two-digit addition with carrying. Each problem consists of two two-digit numbers arranged vertically, which requires the student to add the ones place first and then carry over to the tens place if necessary. The layout of the problems, with empty boxes for the sums, allows students to neatly organize their work and clearly demonstrates the carrying process when the sum of the ones place exceeds ten.

The worksheet aims to teach students the fundamentals of addition with carrying, a critical arithmetic skill. It helps them understand the concept of place value and the importance of aligning numbers correctly. By completing these exercises, students practice the essential skill of carrying over, which is necessary for accurate addition of larger numbers. The repetition of problems reinforces the process and helps to build confidence and speed in basic addition.
