    Column by column: 125,924 − 2,468

    • Ones: 4 is less than 8 — borrow 1 ten: tens 2 → 1; 14 − 8 = 6 — write 6.
    • Tens: after borrowing, 1; 1 is less than 6 — borrow 1 hundred: hundreds 9 → 8; 11 − 6 = 5 — write 5.
    • Hundreds: after borrowing, 8; 8 − 4 = 4 — write 4.
    • Thousands: 5 − 2 = 3 — write 3.
    • Ten thousands: nothing to subtract — write 2.
    • Hundred thousands: nothing to subtract — write 1.

    125,924 − 2,468 = 123,456
