    4,805

    With regrouping: 1 borrow — from the thousands

    6,039 − 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.
    5+10
    6(was 6, now 5)0 (was 0, now 10)3 9
    −1234
    4805

    Column by column: 6,039 − 1,234

    • Ones: 9 − 4 = 5 — write 5.
    • Tens: 3 − 3 = 0 — write 0.
    • Hundreds: 0 is less than 2 — borrow 1 thousand: thousands 6 → 5; 10 − 2 = 8 — write 8.
    • Thousands: after borrowing, 5; 5 − 1 = 4 — write 4.

    6,039 − 1,234 = 4,805

    Second check: 6,039 − 4,805 = 1,234
