    Column by column: 17,150 − 4,805

    • Ones: 0 is less than 5 — borrow 1 ten: tens 5 → 4; 10 − 5 = 5 — write 5.
    • Tens: after borrowing, 4; 4 − 0 = 4 — write 4.
    • Hundreds: 1 is less than 8 — borrow 1 thousand: thousands 7 → 6; 11 − 8 = 3 — write 3.
    • Thousands: after borrowing, 6; 6 − 4 = 2 — write 2.
    • Ten thousands: nothing to subtract — write 1.

    17,150 − 4,805 = 12,345

    Second check: 17,150 − 12,345 = 4,805
