Answer key · Measure and compare lengths using non-standard units

1.
12 — 7 + 5 = 12 blocks.
2.
9 — 3 + 6 = 9 paper clips.
3.
11 — 7 + 4 = 11 paper clips.
4.
2 — 6 − 4 = 2 blocks.
5.
3 — 6 − 3 = 3 blocks.
6.
10 — 12 − 2 = 10 cubes.
7.
6 — Smaller units take more of them: 3 × 2 = 6 cubes.
8.
18 — Smaller units take more of them: 9 × 2 = 18 small tiles.
9.
16 — Smaller units take more of them: 8 × 2 = 16 small tiles.
