Solve 51-3 Using Two Jumps on a Number Line

Solve the subtraction exercise,

using two jumps on the number line below:

$51-3=$

To solve $51 - 3$ using two jumps on a number line, follow these steps:

• Step 1: Start at 51 on the number line.
• Step 2: Perform the first jump by subtracting 1: $51 - 1 = 50$.
  Now, we are at 50 on the number line.
• Step 3: Perform the second jump by subtracting 2: $50 - 2 = 48$.
  Now, we are at 48 on the number line.

Therefore, the result of the subtraction $51 - 3$ is $48$.
