719, 729, ____, 749, __, __, ____
Step1: Fill tens place (no regroup)
To avoid regrouping, the bottom tens digit must be ≤ 5. Choose 5 (max valid value).
Subtraction:
Step2: Calculate difference (Q10)
Subtract each place:
Ones: $3-1=2$, Tens: $5-5=0$, Hundreds: $4-2=2$
Result: $202$
Step3: Check cousin's subtraction (Q11)
Correct regroup for $731-246$:
Ones: $1<6$, regroup tens: $3→2$, $1→11$. $11-6=5$
Tens: $2<4$, regroup hundreds: $7→6$, $2→12$. $12-4=8$
Hundreds: $6-2=4$
Correct result: $485$
Cousin's regroup error: Altered hundreds/tens incorrectly.
Step4: Calculate good bananas (Q12)
Total bananas - rotten bananas: $453-268$
Ones: $13-8=5$, Tens: $4-6→$ regroup, $14-6=8$, Hundreds: $3-2=1$
Result: $185$
Step5: Calculate remaining shirts (Q13)
Total shirts: $432+293=725$
Remaining: $725-516$
Ones: $15-6=9$, Tens: $1-1=0$, Hundreds: $7-5=2$
Result: $209$
Step6: Find sequence pattern (Q14)
Sequence increases by 10 each term:
$729+10=739$, $749+10=759$, $759+10=769$, $769+10=779$
