Subtraction Worksheets

Build free, printable subtraction worksheets in seconds. Set the number range for each value — from basic single-digit facts up to three-digit borrowing — then choose how many problems fit on a page and how many pages to print. Every worksheet downloads as a clean PDF, and you can add a matching answer key so it is ready to hand out the moment it prints.

Use the Regrouping setting to zero in on the skill that needs the most practice. Set it to 'No Regrouping' for straightforward single-step subtraction, switch to 'Regrouping Only' when your student is working on borrowing, or leave it on 'Both' for mixed practice. Worksheets are randomly generated every time, so each sheet is unique.
