What is 700 − 36?

Answer

700 − 36 =
664

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 − 36 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.

664

Column by column: 700 − 36

  • Ones: 0 is less than 6 — borrow 1 hundred across the zero: hundreds 7 → 6, tens 0 → 9; 10 − 6 = 4 — write 4.
  • Tens: after borrowing, 9; 9 − 3 = 6 — write 6.
  • Hundreds: after borrowing, 6; nothing to subtract — write 6.

700 − 36 = 664

Second check: 700 − 664 = 36

700 − 36 = 664

How do you check that 700 − 36 = 664?

Add the difference and the subtrahend: 664 + 36 = 700. Getting the minuend back means the difference is right.

How many times do you borrow in 700 − 36?

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 − 36?

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.
