Missing parts in bonds to 20
A bond picture has a whole at the top and two parts underneath.
The whole is 20. If one part is missing, take the other part away from 20.
Key ideas
- The whole is 20.
- The two parts add up to 20.
- Take the known part away from 20.
Method. In a part-whole picture, the two parts add up to the whole.
- Look at the whole and the known part. The whole is 20.20 and 9
- Take the known part away from the whole. What is left is the missing part.20 - 9 = 11
- Write the missing part. 11
Check. 9 and 11 make 20. It works.
Watch out. The missing part is never the whole. Find the part by subtracting.
Method. In a part-whole picture, the two parts add up to the whole.
- Look at the whole and the known part. The whole is 20.20 and 7

- Write the missing part. 13
Check. 7 and 13 make 20. It works.
Watch out. The missing part is never the whole. Find the part by subtracting.
Method. In a part-whole picture, the two parts add up to the whole.
- Look at the whole and the known part. The whole is 20.20 and 15
- Take the known part away from the whole. What is left is the missing part.20 - 15 = 5
- Write the missing part. 5
Check. 15 and 5 make 20. It works.
Watch out. The missing part is never the whole. Find the part by subtracting.
Watch out
Watch out. Do not add the two parts to find the missing part. Take the known part away from 20.
Exam tip
Grown-up tip. Draw a bond picture on paper. Cover one part with a finger and ask your child to say the hidden part.
