    What is 700 − 12?

    Answer

    700 − 12 =
    688

    With regrouping across a zero: 2 borrows — there are no tens to borrow from, so 1 hundred becomes 10 tens, and 1 ten goes to the ones

    700 − 12 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.
    69+10
    7(was 7, now 6)0(was 0, now 9)0 (was 0, now 10)
    −12
    688

    Column by column: 700 − 12

    • Ones: 0 is less than 2 — borrow 1 hundred across the zero: hundreds 7 → 6, tens 0 → 9; 10 − 2 = 8 — write 8.
    • Tens: after borrowing, 9; 9 − 1 = 8 — write 8.
    • Hundreds: after borrowing, 6; nothing to subtract — write 6.

    700 − 12 = 688

    Second check: 700 − 688 = 12

    FAQ

    What is 700 − 12?

    700 − 12 = 688

    How do you check that 700 − 12 = 688?

    Add the difference and the subtrahend: 688 + 12 = 700. Getting the minuend back means the difference is right.

    How many times do you borrow in 700 − 12?

    2 borrows: each time the top digit was smaller than the one below it, 1 was borrowed from the column on the left.

    Why does 0 become 9 when borrowing in 700 − 12?

    The zero has nothing to lend, so it first borrows 1 from its left neighbour and becomes 10; then it lends 1 to the column on its right and keeps 9.
