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

133 − 39 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	12	+10
		1(was 1, now 0)	3(was 3, now 12)	3 (was 3, now 13)
	−		3	9

Column by column: 133 − 39

Ones: 3 is less than 9 — borrow 1 ten: tens 3 → 2; 13 − 9 = 4 — write 4.
Tens: after borrowing, 2; 2 is less than 3 — borrow 1 hundred: hundreds 1 → 0; 12 − 3 = 9 — write 9.
Hundreds: after borrowing, 0 — a leading zero is not written.
