What is the Compatible Numbers Subtraction Strategy?

The Compatible Numbers strategy is a mental math approach that simplifies the process of subtraction by using numbers that are close to the original numbers but easier to work with. This method is particularly useful when dealing with larger numbers or when performing mental calculations.
