    What is 10,000 − 136?

    Answer

    10,000 − 136 =
    9,864

    With regrouping across zeros: 4 borrows — 3 zeros in a row, so 1 ten thousand is passed down, each zero becomes 9, and 1 ten goes to the ones

    10,000 − 136 in a column. Above the columns: the values after borrowing — a crossed-out digit is replaced by the number above it; +10 marks a column that received a borrowed ten.

    −136
    9864

    Column by column: 10,000 − 136

    • Ones: 0 is less than 6 — borrow 1 ten thousand across the zero: ten thousands 1 → 0, thousands 0 → 9, hundreds 0 → 9, tens 0 → 9; 10 − 6 = 4 — write 4.
    • Tens: after borrowing, 9; 9 − 3 = 6 — write 6.
    • Hundreds: after borrowing, 9; 9 − 1 = 8 — write 8.
    • Thousands: after borrowing, 9; nothing to subtract — write 9.
    • Ten thousands: after borrowing, 0 — a leading zero is not written.

    10,000 − 136 = 9,864

    Second check: 10,000 − 9,864 = 136

    FAQ

    What is 10,000 − 136?

    10,000 − 136 = 9,864

    How do you check that 10,000 − 136 = 9,864?

    Add the difference and the subtrahend: 9,864 + 136 = 10,000. Getting the minuend back means the difference is right.

    How many times do you borrow in 10,000 − 136?

    4 borrows: each time the top digit was smaller than the one below it, 1 was borrowed from the column on the left.

    Why does 0 become 9 when borrowing in 10,000 − 136?

    The zero has nothing to lend, so it first borrows 1 from its left neighbour and becomes 10; then it lends 1 to the column on its right and keeps 9.
