    What is 214 − 78?

    Answer

    214 − 78 =
    136

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

    214 − 78 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.
    110+10
    2(was 2, now 1)1(was 1, now 10)4 (was 4, now 14)
    −78
    136

    Column by column: 214 − 78

    • Ones: 4 is less than 8 — borrow 1 ten: tens 1 → 0; 14 − 8 = 6 — write 6.
    • Tens: after borrowing, 0; 0 is less than 7 — borrow 1 hundred: hundreds 2 → 1; 10 − 7 = 3 — write 3.
    • Hundreds: after borrowing, 1; nothing to subtract — write 1.

    214 − 78 = 136

    Second check: 214 − 136 = 78
