    What is 721 − 74?

    Answer

    721 − 74 =
    647

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

    721 − 74 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.
    611+10
    7(was 7, now 6)2(was 2, now 11)1 (was 1, now 11)
    −74
    647

    Column by column: 721 − 74

    • Ones: 1 is less than 4 — borrow 1 ten: tens 2 → 1; 11 − 4 = 7 — write 7.
    • Tens: after borrowing, 1; 1 is less than 7 — borrow 1 hundred: hundreds 7 → 6; 11 − 7 = 4 — write 4.
    • Hundreds: after borrowing, 6; nothing to subtract — write 6.

    721 − 74 = 647

    Second check: 721 − 647 = 74
