To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:
Step 1: Write the numbers in column form.
Step 2: Subtract starting from the rightmost (units) column.
Step 3: Apply borrowing/regrouping if necessary.
Now, let's work through each step:
Step 1: Write the numbers vertically.
Step 2: Starting with the units column:
Since , we need to borrow 1 from the tens column (1 becomes 0, and 3 becomes 13).
Step 3: Perform the subtraction with borrowing:
- Units:
- Tens: Re-evaluated 0 (after borrowing) minus 5, need another borrow so 0 turns to 10. - After borrowing from hundreds column, .
- Hundreds: After borrowing, left with 6. Thus,
Therefore, put all together, the difference is:
Therefore, the solution to the problem is .
655
\( \begin{aligned} &105 \\ -& \\ &~~~~3 \\ &\underline{\phantom{776}} & \\ \end{aligned} \)
You're absolutely right! Since 3 is smaller than 8, you need to borrow. Think of it like borrowing money - you take 10 from the tens place, making 3 become 13, then .
Great question! When borrowing from 0 (like in the tens place), you need to borrow from the next column first. The 0 becomes 10, then you can borrow 1 from it, leaving 9 in that position.
Always start from the rightmost column (units place) and work your way left. This is like counting - ones, tens, hundreds. This order ensures borrowing works correctly!
Yes! The best way is addition. Add your answer to the number you subtracted: . If you get 713 (the original number), you're correct!
No problem! Just handle one column at a time. In 713 - 58, you borrow twice: once for units (3→13) and once for tens (0→10). Take it step by step and you'll get it right.
