With regrouping: 2 borrows — from the tens and the hundreds

113 − 39 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.
		0	10	+10
		1(was 1, now 0)	1(was 1, now 10)	3 (was 3, now 13)
	−		3	9
			7	4

Column by column: 113 − 39

Ones: 3 is less than 9 — borrow 1 ten: tens 1 → 0; 13 − 9 = 4 — write 4.
Tens: after borrowing, 0; 0 is less than 3 — borrow 1 hundred: hundreds 1 → 0; 10 − 3 = 7 — write 7.
Hundreds: after borrowing, 0 — a leading zero is not written.
