Problem: The Nile River is the longest river in the world with a length of 6,650 kilometers. The Red River is 1,149 kilometers long. How many kilometers longer is the Nile River than the Red River?
Instructions: To find out how many kilometers longer the Nile River is compared to the Red River, subtract the length of the Red River from the length of the Nile River.
Answer:
The Nile River is longer than the Red River by:
6,650 - 1,149 = 5,501 (km)
Final Answer: 5,501 km.

1. Solve Exercise 1 on Page 42 of Math Grade 3 Workbook
Problem: Mental calculation (following the example).
Solution Guide: Observe the example then mentally subtract the rounded thousands.
Answer:
a) 7 thousand - 3 thousand = 4 thousand
7,000 - 3,000 = 4,000
b) 8 thousand - 5 thousand = 3 thousand
8,000 - 5,000 = 3,000
c) 9 thousand - 7 thousand = 2 thousand
9,000 - 7,000 = 2,000
d) 10 thousand - 6 thousand = 4 thousand
10,000 - 6,000 = 4,000
2. Solve Exercise 2 on Page 42 of Math Grade 3 Workbook
Problem: Calculate mentally (following the example).
a) 5,200 - 200 = 5,000
b) 3,500 - 1,000 = 2,500
c) 6,700 - 600 = 6,100
d) 8,400 - 6,000 = 2,400
Solution Guide: Observe the example then mentally subtract the rounded hundreds.
Answer:
a) 200 - 200 = 0
5,200 - 200 = 5,000
b) 3,000 - 1,000 = 2,000
3,500 - 1,000 = 2,500
c) 700 - 600 = 100
6,700 - 600 = 6,100
d) 8,000 - 6,000 = 2,000
8,400 - 6,000 = 2,400.

4. Solve Exercise 4 on Page 42 of Math Grade 3 Workbook
Problem: A truck carries 9,000 liters of oil. The first time, it pumps 2,500 liters of oil into a gas station. The second time, it pumps 2,200 liters of oil into another station. How many liters of oil are left in the truck?
Solution:
Step 1: Find the total liters of oil pumped for both times = Liters of oil pumped first time + Liters of oil pumped second time.
Step 2: Find the remaining liters of oil after both times pumped = Liters of oil in the truck - Total liters of oil pumped for both times.
Answer:
The total liters of oil pumped by the truck for both times are:
2,500 + 2,200 = 4,700 (liters)
The remaining liters of oil in the truck after both times pumped are:
9,000 - 4,700 = 4,300 (liters)
Final Answer: 4,300 liters
