If we have 67 blocks in total, how many blocks will remain if we remove 5 tens and 4 ones?
When we subtract 8 from 58, we're taking away 8 from the entire number, not just from the ones place. Think of it as 58 - 8 = 50, where we remove 8 units completely.
No borrowing needed! Since we have 8 in the ones place and we're subtracting 8, it works out evenly. The 8 ones become 0 ones, leaving us with 5 tens = 50.
Use addition to check subtraction! Add your answer to what you subtracted: . Since this equals our starting number, 50 is correct!
That means you might have subtracted 58 - 50 instead of 58 - 8. Always read the problem carefully and make sure you're subtracting the right numbers in the right order.
Yes! When you subtract a number from itself in the ones place (like 8 from 8), the ones place becomes 0. So 58 - 8 = 50, 73 - 3 = 70, etc.
