Beth saw 13 apples on the tree. 5 fell off the tree. How many apples are left?
Beth counted 6. Is she correct? ____
Show your answer using the ten frame.
Explain why your answer is correct.
No, Beth is wrong. There are 8 left because 13-5=8.
On the ten frame you place 10 on the top and 3 on the bottom. I can take away 3. 13-3=10. I took away 3 but need to take away 5 so, I need to take away 2 more. 10-2=8.
13-5=8
