    What is 159 − 76?

    Answer

    159 − 76 =
    83

    With regrouping: 1 borrow — from the hundreds

    159 − 76 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+10
    1(was 1, now 0)5 (was 5, now 15)9
    −76
    83

    Column by column: 159 − 76

    • Ones: 9 − 6 = 3 — write 3.
    • Tens: 5 is less than 7 — borrow 1 hundred: hundreds 1 → 0; 15 − 7 = 8 — write 8.
    • Hundreds: after borrowing, 0 — a leading zero is not written.

    159 − 76 = 83

    Second check: 159 − 83 = 76
