    What is 640 − 172?

    Answer

    640 − 172 =
    468

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

    640 − 172 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.
    513+10
    6(was 6, now 5)4(was 4, now 13)0 (was 0, now 10)
    −172
    468

    Column by column: 640 − 172

    • Ones: 0 is less than 2 — borrow 1 ten: tens 4 → 3; 10 − 2 = 8 — write 8.
    • Tens: after borrowing, 3; 3 is less than 7 — borrow 1 hundred: hundreds 6 → 5; 13 − 7 = 6 — write 6.
    • Hundreds: after borrowing, 5; 5 − 1 = 4 — write 4.

    640 − 172 = 468

    Second check: 640 − 468 = 172
