Mathematics: Class 3 — Chapter 12: Give and Take

12.1 Addition and Subtraction Patterns

Exploring basic addition and subtraction patterns using number sequences and grids.

12.2 Addition of 3-Digit Numbers

Learn how to add three-digit numbers using different visual and systematic methods.

12.2.1 Box Diagrams and HTO Blocks

To solve $364 + 52$:

  • Represent $364$ as 3 Hundreds, 6 Tens, and 4 Ones.
  • Represent $52$ as 5 Tens and 2 Ones.
  • Combine the blocks: Regrouping 10 Tens to form 1 Hundred.
  • This leaves us with 4 Hundreds, 1 Ten, and 6 Ones, which equals $416$.

12.2.2 Number Line Method

Start at $364$ and make jumps of $+10$ and $+1$ to add $52$:

  • Five jumps of $+10$: $364 \rightarrow 374 \rightarrow 384 \rightarrow 394 \rightarrow 404 \rightarrow 414$
  • Two jumps of $+1$: $414 \rightarrow 415 \rightarrow 416$
12.3 Subtraction of 3-Digit Numbers with Regrouping

Learn how to subtract numbers by regrouping hundreds, tens, and ones.

12.3.1 Regrouping Tens to Ones

To subtract $75$ from $230$:

  • Since we cannot take away 5 ones from 0 ones, we regroup 1 Ten into 10 Ones.
  • Now we have 2 Hundreds, 2 Tens, and 10 Ones.
  • Subtract 5 ones from 10 ones to get 5 ones.

12.3.2 Regrouping Hundreds to Tens

Next, we need to subtract 7 tens from 2 tens:

  • Since we cannot subtract 7 tens from 2 tens, we regroup 1 Hundred into 10 Tens.
  • Now we have 1 Hundred, 12 Tens, and 5 Ones.
  • Subtract 7 tens from 12 tens to get 5 tens.
  • We are left with 1 Hundred, 5 Tens, and 5 Ones, which equals $155$.
12.4 Money and Transactions

Understanding the concept of exchange, from historical barter systems to modern currency.

12.4.1 The Barter System

Before money existed, people used the Barter System to exchange goods based on mutual needs (e.g., exchanging 5 sacks of rice for 10 sacks of vegetables).

12.4.2 Modern Currency

Today, we use coins and notes of different denominations (₹10, ₹20, ₹50, ₹100, ₹500) to buy goods.

  • Equivalent Values: Different combinations of notes and coins can represent the same value (e.g., five ₹100 notes are equal to one ₹500 note).
  • Making Payments: Finding multiple ways to pay for an item (e.g., paying ₹55 using one ₹50 note and one ₹5 coin, or two ₹20 notes, one ₹10 note, and one ₹5 coin).
12.5 Estimation and Mental Math

Developing strategies for quick calculations and estimation.

12.5.1 Estimation to the Nearest Hundred

Estimate sums and differences by rounding to the nearest hundred:

  • $156 + 34 \approx 200$
  • $505 + 405 \approx 900$
  • $500 - 395 \approx 100$

12.5.2 Comparing Expressions Without Calculating

Compare mathematical expressions by analyzing their components:

  • $373 + 40 > 373 + 23$ (since $40 > 23$)
  • $345 - 45 > 345 - 54$ (subtracting a smaller number leaves a larger result)
