4-Digit Mental Addition and Subtraction Worksheet
The fast method (Split and join): Split each 4-digit number into two 2-digit halves: 4768 → 47|68. Work out the left halves and the right halves on their own. Adding: a right half of 100 or more carries 1 to the left half. Subtracting: right half too small? Borrow 1 from the left half — it is worth 100 on the right.
