00:03 Each time we consider borrowing 2 digits, and then we'll place
00:07 5 is less than 6
00:12 Therefore we subtract 1 from the tens, and add this amount to the ones
00:16 That means now instead of 5 we'll have 15
00:21 We subtract the ones from the ones plus ten
00:24 We place in ones
00:28 We subtract tens from tens, and place in tens
00:31 3 is less than 5
00:37 Therefore we subtract 1 from the thousands, and add this amount to the hundreds
00:41 That means now instead of 3 we'll have 13
00:44 We subtract the hundreds from the hundreds plus hundred
00:50 We place in hundreds
00:53 We subtract thousands from thousands, and place in thousands
00:57 And this is the solution to the problem

Step-by-step solution

To solve this problem, we'll follow these steps:

  • Step 1: Align the numbers by place value.
  • Step 2: Subtract each corresponding digit from right to left.
  • Step 3: Borrow from the left if the top digit is smaller than the bottom digit.

Now, let's work through each step:

Step 1: Align 6315 and 1506 vertically by place values:
63151506\begin{aligned} &6315 \\ -&1506 \\ \hline & \end{aligned}

Step 2: Start subtracting from the units place:

Units place: 565 - 6. Since 5 is smaller than 6, we need to borrow 1 from the tens place.
1 becomes 0 (in the tens place), and 5 becomes 15:
156=915 - 6 = 9.

Tens place: Now it’s 000 - 0. That gives us 00.

Hundreds place: 353 - 5 in the hundreds place. Since 3 is smaller than 5, we borrow 1 from the thousands place.
3 becomes 13 and 6 becomes 5:
135=813 - 5 = 8.

Thousands place: 51=45 - 1 = 4.

Therefore, the result of subtraction is 48094809.

According to the provided answer choices, the correct choice is choice 3, which is the number 48094809.

The solution to the problem is 48094809.
