    • Tens: 4 is less than 9 — borrow 1 hundred: hundreds 4 → 3; 14 − 9 = 5 — write 5.
    • Hundreds: after borrowing, 3; 3 − 0 = 3 — write 3.
    • Thousands: 2 is less than 5 — borrow 1 ten thousand: ten thousands 1 → 0; 12 − 5 = 7 — write 7.
    • Ten thousands: after borrowing, 0 — a leading zero is not written.
