    What is 121 − 36?

    Answer

    121 − 36 =
    85

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

    121 − 36 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.
    011+10
    1(was 1, now 0)2(was 2, now 11)1 (was 1, now 11)
    −36
    85

    Column by column: 121 − 36

    • Ones: 1 is less than 6 — borrow 1 ten: tens 2 → 1; 11 − 6 = 5 — write 5.
    • Tens: after borrowing, 1; 1 is less than 3 — borrow 1 hundred: hundreds 1 → 0; 11 − 3 = 8 — write 8.
    • Hundreds: after borrowing, 0 — a leading zero is not written.

    121 − 36 = 85

    Second check: 121 − 85 = 36
