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

126 − 28 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	11	+10
		1(was 1, now 0)	2(was 2, now 11)	6 (was 6, now 16)
	−		2	8
			9	8

Ones: 6 is less than 8 — borrow 1 ten: tens 2 → 1; 16 − 8 = 8 — write 8.
Tens: after borrowing, 1; 1 is less than 2 — borrow 1 hundred: hundreds 1 → 0; 11 − 2 = 9 — write 9.
Hundreds: after borrowing, 0 — a leading zero is not written.
