    What is 115,401 − 45,089?

    Answer

    115,401 − 45,089 =
    70,312

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

    115,401 − 45,089 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: 115,401 − 45,089

    • Ones: 1 is less than 9 — borrow 1 hundred across the zero: hundreds 4 → 3, tens 0 → 9; 11 − 9 = 2 — write 2.
    • Tens: after borrowing, 9; 9 − 8 = 1 — write 1.
    • Hundreds: after borrowing, 3; 3 − 0 = 3 — write 3.
    • Thousands: 5 − 5 = 0 — write 0.
    • Ten thousands: 1 is less than 4 — borrow 1 hundred thousand: hundred thousands 1 → 0; 11 − 4 = 7 — write 7.
    • Hundred thousands: after borrowing, 0 — a leading zero is not written.

    115,401 − 45,089 = 70,312

    Second check: 115,401 − 70,312 = 45,089

    FAQ

    What is 115,401 − 45,089?

    115,401 − 45,089 = 70,312

    How do you check that 115,401 − 45,089 = 70,312?

    Add the difference and the subtrahend: 70,312 + 45,089 = 115,401. Getting the minuend back means the difference is right.

    How many times do you borrow in 115,401 − 45,089?

    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 115,401 − 45,089?

    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.
