Answer

62 − 23 =

39

With regrouping: 1 borrow — from the tens

62 − 23 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)	2 (was 2, now 12)
	−	2	3
		3	9

Column by column: 62 − 23

Ones: 2 is less than 3 — borrow 1 ten: tens 6 → 5; 12 − 3 = 9 — write 9.
Tens: after borrowing, 5; 5 − 2 = 3 — write 3.

62 − 23 = 39
