    What is 406,301 − 1,234?

    Answer

    406,301 − 1,234 =
    405,067

    With regrouping across a zero: 2 borrows — there are no tens to borrow from, so 1 hundred becomes 10 tens, and 1 ten goes to the ones

    406,301 − 1,234 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.

    Column by column: 406,301 − 1,234

    • Ones: 1 is less than 4 — borrow 1 hundred across the zero: hundreds 3 → 2, tens 0 → 9; 11 − 4 = 7 — write 7.
    • Tens: after borrowing, 9; 9 − 3 = 6 — write 6.
    • Hundreds: after borrowing, 2; 2 − 2 = 0 — write 0.
    • Thousands: 6 − 1 = 5 — write 5.
    • Ten thousands: nothing to subtract — write 0.
    • Hundred thousands: nothing to subtract — write 4.

    406,301 − 1,234 = 405,067

    Second check: 406,301 − 405,067 = 1,234

    FAQ

    What is 406,301 − 1,234?

    How do you check that 406,301 − 1,234 = 405,067?

    Add the difference and the subtrahend: 405,067 + 1,234 = 406,301. Getting the minuend back means the difference is right.

    How many times do you borrow in 406,301 − 1,234?

    2 borrows: each time the top digit was smaller than the one below it, 1 was borrowed from the column on the left.

    Why does 0 become 9 when borrowing in 406,301 − 1,234?

    The zero has nothing to lend, so it first borrows 1 from its left neighbour and becomes 10; then it lends 1 to the column on its right and keeps 9.
