    What is 317 − 78?

    Answer

    317 − 78 =
    239

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

    317 − 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.
    210+10
    3(was 3, now 2)1(was 1, now 10)7 (was 7, now 17)
    −78
    239

    Column by column: 317 − 78

    • Ones: 7 is less than 8 — borrow 1 ten: tens 1 → 0; 17 − 8 = 9 — write 9.
    • Tens: after borrowing, 0; 0 is less than 7 — borrow 1 hundred: hundreds 3 → 2; 10 − 7 = 3 — write 3.
    • Hundreds: after borrowing, 2; nothing to subtract — write 2.

    317 − 78 = 239

    Second check: 317 − 239 = 78
