Place Value with Base-10 Blocks: Removing Tens and Ones from 226

To solve the problem, we need to perform the following steps:

• Step 1: Identify the value of the tens and the ones in the number 226.
• Step 2: Calculate the sum of the tens and ones places.
• Step 3: Subtract this sum from the total number of blocks given.

Step 1: In the number 226, the digit in the tens place is 2, which means there are 20 (2 tens), and the digit in the ones place is 6.
Step 2: The sum of the tens and ones is $20 + 6 = 26$.
Step 3: Subtract this sum from the total number of blocks: $226 - 26$.

Therefore, the calculation is $226 - 26 = 200$.

The number of remaining blocks is 200.
