Answer

70 − 34 =

36

With regrouping: 1 borrow — from the tens

70 − 34 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.
		6	+10
		7(was 7, now 6)	0 (was 0, now 10)
	−	3	4
		3	6

Column by column: 70 − 34

Ones: 0 is less than 4 — borrow 1 ten: tens 7 → 6; 10 − 4 = 6 — write 6.
Tens: after borrowing, 6; 6 − 3 = 3 — write 3.

70 − 34 = 36
