    What is 559 − 268?

    Answer

    559 − 268 =
    291

    With regrouping: 1 borrow — from the hundreds

    559 − 268 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.
    4+10
    5(was 5, now 4)5 (was 5, now 15)9
    −268
    291

    Column by column: 559 − 268

    • Ones: 9 − 8 = 1 — write 1.
    • Tens: 5 is less than 6 — borrow 1 hundred: hundreds 5 → 4; 15 − 6 = 9 — write 9.
    • Hundreds: after borrowing, 4; 4 − 2 = 2 — write 2.

    559 − 268 = 291

    Second check: 559 − 291 = 268
