    What is 1,005 − 427?

    Answer

    1,005 − 427 =
    578

    With regrouping across a zero: 3 borrows — there are no hundreds or tens to borrow from, so 1 thousand becomes 10 hundreds, and 1 ten goes to the ones

    1,005 − 427 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.

    Column by column: 1,005 − 427

    • Ones: 5 is less than 7 — borrow 1 thousand across the zero: thousands 1 → 0, hundreds 0 → 9, tens 0 → 9; 15 − 7 = 8 — write 8.
    • Tens: after borrowing, 9; 9 − 2 = 7 — write 7.
    • Hundreds: after borrowing, 9; 9 − 4 = 5 — write 5.
    • Thousands: after borrowing, 0 — a leading zero is not written.

    1,005 − 427 = 578

    Second check: 1,005 − 578 = 427

    FAQ

    What is 1,005 − 427?

    1,005 − 427 = 578

    How do you check that 1,005 − 427 = 578?

    Add the difference and the subtrahend: 578 + 427 = 1,005. Getting the minuend back means the difference is right.

    How many times do you borrow in 1,005 − 427?

    3 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 1,005 − 427?

    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.
