This math topic focuses on the subtraction of integers involving scenarios that require borrowing. It deals with problems specifically where numbers are less than 30, and the integers involved are a mix of one and two digits. The context of the problems includes comparing quantities of shapes in various colors, demanding attentiveness to both counting and subtractive comparison. The exercises are framed as questions asking how many more of one type of shape there are compared to another, sharpening basic arithmetic and visual interpretation skills.
