    What is 532 − 47?

    Answer

    532 − 47 =
    485

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

    532 − 47 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.
    412+10
    5(was 5, now 4)3(was 3, now 12)2 (was 2, now 12)
    −47
    485

    Column by column: 532 − 47

    • Ones: 2 is less than 7 — borrow 1 ten: tens 3 → 2; 12 − 7 = 5 — write 5.
    • Tens: after borrowing, 2; 2 is less than 4 — borrow 1 hundred: hundreds 5 → 4; 12 − 4 = 8 — write 8.
    • Hundreds: after borrowing, 4; nothing to subtract — write 4.

    532 − 47 = 485

    Second check: 532 − 485 = 47
