    What is 291 − 23?

    Answer

    291 − 23 =
    268

    With regrouping: 1 borrow — from the tens

    291 − 23 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.
    8+10
    2 9(was 9, now 8)1 (was 1, now 11)
    −23
    268

    Column by column: 291 − 23

    • Ones: 1 is less than 3 — borrow 1 ten: tens 9 → 8; 11 − 3 = 8 — write 8.
    • Tens: after borrowing, 8; 8 − 2 = 6 — write 6.
    • Hundreds: nothing to subtract — write 2.

    291 − 23 = 268

    Second check: 291 − 268 = 23
