Example of 3 digit numbers in a story:

A water tank can hold 650 liters of water up to the top. Right now, the tank has 425 liters

of water in it. How much water is needed to fill the tank completely?

Solution: water tanker can hold up to water = 650 litres

Water the tanker has right now = 425 litres

Water needed to fill the tank = 650 – 425= 225 litres

Therefore, 225 litres of water is needed to fill the tank completely.
