Calculate the Difference: 94 Minus 6 Subtraction Problem

$\begin{aligned} &94 \\ -& \\ &~~6 \\ &\underline{\phantom{776}} & \\ \end{aligned}$

To solve this subtraction problem, we will use the vertical subtraction method. Here’s how to approach it step-by-step:

• Step 1: Arrange the numbers in a column, aligning them by place value. The top number (the minuend) is 94, and the bottom number (the subtrahend) is 6.

• Step 2: Begin subtracting from the rightmost column (the ones place). Here we have:

$~~~~4$

$-~~6$

• Since 4 is less than 6, we need to regroup. We'll borrow 1 ten from the tens place:

$~~~~14$ (after borrowing)

$-~~6$

• Step 3: Subtract the ones now: 14 - 6 = 8, write 8 under the ones column.

• Step 4: Move to the tens column where we initially had 9 tens, but now it’s reduced by 1 tens due to regrouping, making it 8 tens. Thus:

$~~~~8$

$-~~0$

• There’s nothing to subtract from 8 in the tens place, so it remains 8. Write 8 under the tens column.

• Therefore, after performing the subtraction, the final result is 88.

Hence, the solution to the subtraction problem is $88$.
