Which part is missing?

## Written script

Let’s make something useful. A missing count can sit at the start or in the amount used. Can your note make that clear? Today: Distinguish unknown starting quantity from unknown subtraction amount. Here is our made-up source. A fictional store starts with 930 tags and finishes with 586. How many were used?930−□=586. Separately, a fictional box uses 175 cards and has 428 left. How many did it start with?□−175=428. What do the numbers count? You can show, draw, type, sign or tell an agreeing helper. We will try one way together, then you choose a task. A fictional game starts with 702 tokens and ends with 459: used 243. A different game uses 126 and ends with 387: start 513. Guide both original-equation checks, one case at a time. Your turn can be one useful part: Solve □ − 148 =367 and explain what the box counts. Keep, change, pause or finish. You do not have to read aloud, handle objects or hurry.
